World News Online Information Update : Safety for Samir‏

All Out
 
Dear friends,
2,504 of us have chipped in to help get Samir and two other refugees into safe housing, away from the horrific attacks homeless gay and trans refugees face when on the run from the Islamic State (ISIS).
Now, safe in a place to call home, Samir has a message to you:
When the doors of my family and my country were shut in my face, no safe place remained to me… [This room] is the only place that gives me a sense of comfort and safety. I can do things here like write and study and even dance. Without this room, I wouldn't be able to live in peace and security while I wait to be resettled. I thank you with my whole heart for helping me to live in safety in this room.
Samir came to Lebanon seeking refuge from ISIS, but without refugee housing options for gay people, was left homeless and vulnerable to unthinkable violence. Now, thanks to your donations, he finally has a safe place to call home.
This is the power of people like you: when we stand together, we can change people’s lives.
Thanks for going All Out,
Andre Banks
Executive Director
P.S. While Samir and his fellow refugees are safe, the danger isn’t over. There are countless other refugees still in need of safe housing. Chip in to help others like these refugees, and superpower the movement to fight deadly discrimination around the world.
