Hello, My name is David McNab. My friend Rashid is hoping we can reunite him with his family who are waiting to come to Canada. The government fee for refugees where they are is $2300 per year for a family of 5. Their refugee application has been accepted for processing and we hope to hear news soon. But, even though they are working hard, the refugee fee is an overwhelming burden.

Rashid will be turning 21 on July 27th. He has done extremely well since coming to Canada two years ago. For his birthday, we will hold a dinner and Rashid will speak about his experience and his incredible journey. Any donations to help Rashid's family are greatly appreciated. Tickets for the event can be purchased through me.

July 28th in Peterborough, 6:00 at the New Canadian Centre.

Rashid has worked very hard and truly deserves our support.

Thank you
