Since moving to this country about a year ago, Mary Judith has been unable to work because of the status of her immigration documents. Joseph has consulted his lawyer, whom he has known for a long while, for legal help in changing the status of her documents. Their total bill is $4655 – $1950 for legal fees; $1450 for the cost of changing the status of immigration documents and $1450 for medical testing.

Richmond Friends Meeting can not be an intermediary in this cause, but individuals can financially help them if they are so led. Gifts are not tax-deductible. Any gift to them should be given to Joseph and Mary Judith directly. For their contact information, please contact Sylvia Shurcliff.
