Friends,
I hope this finds you well. As Janis and I celebrate the upcoming one year anniversary of his arrival in the US, we wanted to write you to express and extend our thanks for your efforts and energy in saving his life. We are eternally grateful.
But now we need your help with another former translator. You can read his story here: http://www.change.org/savemyfamily
When the Taliban learned that Mohammad Usafi was working alongside U.S. Marines, they tortured and murdered his father. Mohammad was able to come to the U.S. but his family lives in fear and in hiding everyday.
So Mohammad started a petition asking the Dept. of Homeland Security to allow his family to travel to the US. Please sign it here: http://www.change.org/savemyfamily
DHS can grant Mohammad's family "humanitarian parole" which allows people in emergency situations to come to the states. They really are in danger. After killing his father, the Taliban then kidnapped his 3-year old brother and held him for ransom. They were able to get him back but who knows when they'll strike again.
One of the Marine's Mohammad worked with had this to say about him: "Mohammad would have taken a bullet for me. Lets take care of his family!"
Thank you for helping Mohammad and his family by signing his petition: http://www.change.org/savemyfamily
-Cheers,
Matt Zeller and Janis Shinwari
