Leaving/Arriving


You only leave home when home won’t let you stay.

― Warsan Shire

In the past two weeks, over 14,000 Afghan refugees have arrived at Dulles Airport.

They represent one-half of one percent of all Afghan refugees, but differ from most because they're our allies. 

Their loyal service to our troops is now a death warrant at home.

I hope you'll take a moment to donate whatever you can, to help them resettle here.

I want to raise $911 by 9/11 and am using Facebook to do it

Your money will go directly to Lutheran Social Services of the National Capital Area, a nonprofit group doing effective work on the refugees' behalf.

Facebook pays all the processing fees, so 100% of your donation goes directly to the nonprofit.

Wring a little justice from an unjustified war. 

Donate now.

And thanks!
