Help me renew DACA

Donation protected

From 2003 to 2012 I was considered an illegal immigrant. I came to America from Jamaica at 8 and haven't left since then. I went to American elementary school, middle school. Graduated from high school, went to college all with money acquired from family and saving. In 2012 my life changed. For the past four years I haven't lived with the constant fear that ICE would be knocking on my door. As a child, threats of deportation where constantly used against me and my family to keep us from reporting our abuser. Those same threats against the people close without access to DACA (Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals) keep me silent about many things that have happened without my consent. Fast forward to September 5, 2017 and the day I've dreaded since Donald Trump arrived in office is here: he's ended the program that has allowed me to work legally, drive, and live without the fear that my life and the lives of those around me would be uprooted. I do have some consolation as my work permit and drivers license don't expire until January 27, 2018. The cut off date for those able to re-new their documents is March 5,2018. Please and thank you in advance for sharing and donating.
