Hello Everyone,
I’m deeply grateful to be connected with you. My name is Shawn, and I live in Ireland. Today, I am reaching out on behalf of someone whose story deeply resonates with me. Having once faced a similar struggle myself, I understand the immense challenges that come with displacement, persecution, and survival. That’s why I feel compelled to help.
This fundraiser is for Ace, a survivor, advocate, and proud member of the LGBT community currently living in an East African refugee camp. His journey has been one of resilience, courage, and an unyielding hope for a better future not just for himself, but for others facing the same struggles.
Ace’s Story
Four years ago, Ace was forced to make the most difficult decision of his life. He fled his home country, Uganda, to escape relentless persecution and torture simply because of his identity. Leaving everything behind in search of safety, he soon realized the road to refuge would be filled with unimaginable hardships.
After arriving in Kenya, he faced countless challenges that eventually forced him to flee once again this time to South Sudan, where life has become even more difficult. Every day is a battle for survival.
Ace is not only fighting for himself but also for vulnerable individuals, especially children, who find themselves in similar circumstances. The weight of responsibility is immense, yet he remains determined to provide hope and support to those who need it most.
Why Your Help is Urgently Needed
Today, Ace stands in one of the most desperate moments of his journey. Basic necessities—food, shelter, and medical care are no longer within his reach.
Hunger is a constant struggle
Access to clean water is limited
Unsafe living conditions leave him vulnerable to attacks and illness
Lack of proper healthcare only worsens his situation
Despite these overwhelming challenges, Ace refuses to let despair define his story. He believes in the power of kindness and empathy, and today, he is reaching out with hope that you might extend a helping hand.
How the Funds Will Be Used
Your donations will go directly toward:
✅ Food & Water – Providing daily meals and clean drinking water
✅ Shelter & Safety – Improving living conditions and securing a safer space
✅ Medical Care – Accessing essential treatment and health services
✅ Emergency Relocation – If enough funds are raised, finding a more secure location
How the Funds Will Be Delivered
All funds raised will be delivered directly to Ace via mobile money, ensuring that he can access them immediately for urgent needs.
How You Can Help
Your support whether through donations, sharing this fundraiser, or spreading awareness can save a life. Even the smallest contribution can mean a meal, a night of safety, or life-saving medical care.
If you can, please donate to help Ace survive. Your kindness and generosity will not only provide immediate relief but also restore hope to someone who desperately needs it.
Thank you for taking the time to read this story. Your compassion means more than words can express.
With hope and gratitude,
Shawn & Ace
