Dear Reader We know it’s yet another fundraiser and many are struggling, BUT the desperate needs of refugees do not pause for the festive season. Deported refugees (especially families &amp; single-mothers) need YOU now! Every month, an average of 30 refugees are deported from Germany to Nigeria due to their application for safety being refused. Unfortunately, these deportations won’t stop any time soon. The next scheduled deportation is 19th January.  These experiences are usually extremely violent, psychologically and physically. No empathy involved. We (see below for details) cannot sit by and just let this happen. We urgently need your help to support the affected people sustainably!  We aim to take care of the affected people before and after their journey. We cannot stop the fact, but we wish to support their uncertain future.  There are still no support systems from the state.  <img src="https://d2g8igdw686xgo.cloudfront.net/61907751_1640006448113132_r.jpeg" alt="61907751_1640006448113132_r.jpeg" width="100%" media_type="3" /> ➜ THE GOAL:  The fundraiser goal of €5.000,- would help us to cover the costs of food, accommodation, medication and more for the  first quarter of 2022 (Jan until March) for those deported people.  • If 250 people would donate €20,00,- each, we would be able to reach our funding goal of €5.000,-! •  This is an ongoing fundraiser to create an emergency money pool step-by-step, our work solely relies on donations and volunteers. We are a small self-organised grassroots organization and were founded and led by people who have experienced seeking refuge themselves. •  If you have any further questions regarding this campaign, our work or just want to support us please contact us <a href="https://refugees4refugees.wordpress.com/impressum-kontakt/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>. •  If you prefer donating via PayPal please click <a href="https://refugees4refugees.wordpress.com/spenden/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>     Thank you for your attention!

The project helps people who have been deported to Lagos/Nigeria to immediately find shelter and further support.  You want to further help support families and people on an eye-to-eye level?  Every form of support is strongly necessary. If our work resonates with you, you can become a supporter.  Get in contact with us and tell us how you might be able to help.  Our work solely relies on donations and volunteers.  This is why we are happy to hear from you!  We are particularly thrilled about regular donations, as we finance ourselves.  ➜ Get in touch with us <a href="https://refugees4refugees.org/impressum-kontakt/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>    ➜ Donate to our organization <a href="https://refugees4refugees.org/spenden/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">here</a>
