Hello everyone,

​My name is Tony, and I am writing to you from a place of great urgency. I am 32 years old, and while these should be the most productive years of my life, I am living under a weight I can no longer carry alone.

​As a Christian living in the Middle East, I face a daily reality of sectarian hatred and intolerance. This isn't just a mental burden; it has become a physical one. I have already been diagnosed with hypertension, a direct consequence of the chronic stress and anxiety caused by the environment I live in. My health is declining because I am living in a state of constant 'fight or flight.'

​My Goal: Safety and Health

I have made the decision to leave the Middle East to find a land of peace where I can live freely and, quite literally, breathe again.

​The Plan:

Because my primary goal is safety and a fresh start, I am remaining flexible. Once I have reached my funding goal, I will apply to the country that offers the most accessible visa path for my situation. This ensures that the funds you provide are used in the most efficient and successful way possible to get me to safety.

​Your impact will help cover:

​Visa & Legal Fees: Navigating the paperwork for a fresh start.
​Travel: One-way airfare to a new life.
Medical Transition: Initial costs for managing my hypertension as I resettle.
Basic Survival: A small safety net for housing and food while I find work in my new home.

​I am committed to total transparency. I will update every donor here step-by-step from the moment the goal is met, to the visa application process, and finally, my arrival in a safe haven.

​By supporting this fundraiser, you aren't just helping someone move; you are helping a 32-year-old man reclaim his health and his right to live without fear. Thank you for your kindness and for being part of my journey to peace.

​Note on Privacy: Please understand that I cannot post my personal photo or full name here for my own protection. In my current environment, revealing my identity and my plan to leave could put my life at risk. I must remain anonymous until I reach a safe haven.
