My Travel Story

Hi my name is Christine and I am a 25 year old Haitian living in Antigua. 

Back in 2004, my mother and I moved to Antigua to live, but unfortunately after my parents' divorce, she moved back to Haiti to live. Since then I was only allowed to speak to her twice while I was growing up. Now I'm an adult and working, I was able to get in contact with her and catch up after all these years. With the recent unrest that has been going on in Haiti, life has become very difficult for my mom and my two younger siblings. Due to the gang violence, flight cancellations, lockdowns and gang takeover of our hometown, I have not seen my mother since she left Antigua in 2005. My younger siblings are unable to go to school due to the daily violence that's been going on and the fact that they've been forced to leave our hometown because the gangs have taken over. Right now the best option would be for me to try to take my mom and my two younger siblings get siblings to come and live here in Antigua with me, but I will need some financial assistance to cover flights, visas, accommodation and schooling. Any assistance would really be appreciated.

Please help reunite me and my mother and give her and my siblings an easier life.
