PLACE OF ORIGIN: AFGHANISTAN
CURRENTLY LIVES: TEXAS
MEET ABDUL, SONS & NIECE.
Abdul, the father of two young men, had to make the heartbreaking decision to leave the rest of his family behind after being targeted by violence. In their home country, Abdul’s family was known for standing up for those who were being persecuted in their region. This bravery and compassion left the family ostracized and eventually targeted. Along with his sons, Abdul was able to bring his brother’s daughter with him to the U.S., but the rest of the family had to be left behind.
Since arriving in the U.S., Abdul has been on a long journey to find a place to call home. The family spent five months stuck on a military base, two months in an extended stay hotel room, and are now finally moving into an apartment they can call their own.
Like most fathers, Abdul dreams of a beautiful future for his sons and niece. He hopes they can overcome the challenges they’ve faced and have a better future here in the U.S. The young adults have studied hard to learn conversational English and are working to find jobs and be able to provide for themselves.
And of course, with a family split across continents, the entire family hopes to one day be together again, safe, and happy.
More members are needed for this tribe in order to raise $1,500 for beds, furniture and necessary items for their home.
JOIN THE TRIBE
We are forming a Hope Tribe around Abdul to raise $1,500 to help get their apartment outfitted with basic items such as beds, linens, kitchen items, and more. After fleeing his home country and nearly a year of living in limbo, our desire is to help Abdul and his family create a place they can finally call their own as they continue to rebuild their lives. The Hope Tribe will also assist with filling out paperwork for government assistance until the family can find work.
Join this Hope Tribe by giving a donation and advocating for Abdul and his family. 100% of your donation will benefit his family directly. When you join, you’ll be added to a private group to receive insider updates, have opportunities to get to know the family further, and learn how you can specifically pray.
If you aren’t ready to give you can also join an email newsletter to learn more about how you can advocate and assist in other ways.
