In 2012, at age 16 I was discovered as an undocumented immigrant by child protective services. At that point I was fully prepared to accept deportation back to Belgium (which is a decent country), because being undocumented here as a child was already difficult as hell and my status as an adult would make it nearly impossible to survive. Thankfully I had a supportive foster family and some friends at HIAS PA who helped and funded my application for DACA to delay my deportation and found a way for me to stay here permanently via a Green Card granted through the Special Juvenile Immigrant program. So to see that now, ten years later, new applicants to the DACA program are having their applications suspended indefinitely simply breaks my heart. I had a safe home country to go back to, one of which I knew the language and culture and I still had some family to rely on, so I knew that even though going back was not in my best interest and the transition would be extremely strenuous, eventually I would be alright. But in most cases, DACA recipients aren't so fortunate. America is the only home they know, and the fact that old racist and angry adults are literally trying to rip away the little shred of hope these individuals have left deeply saddens me.” One hundred percent of the proceeds from minting this NFT will go towards The Legal Aid Society , to fund legal aid and representation for migrant children and their family members. Every subsequent sale will be split 50-50 between the seller and the foundation. You must be 18 years or older (or whichever is the legal age in your area) and possess a valid credit card tied to your name, or if purchasing with crypto you automatically attest that you are of legal majority age within your jurisdiction to be making such a transaction.

Life happens, people struggle, we need to help fund legal assistance Everyone deserves the opportunity to protect their rights, seek justice & be guided by educated professionals.
