In a moment of desperation, my sponsor family in Afghanistan—a young widow and her daughter—faced an urgent need to flee, with nowhere to turn. Feeling utterly hopeless, I reached out to a friend, who connected me with Global Agents of Change. Miraculously, that very same day, they arranged a secure extraction and relocated the family to a safe house where they could stay while we figured out the next steps. Despite the immense challenges of securing passports and visas—made even more difficult without a male guardian (mahram)—the team managed to navigate the complex process and obtain the necessary documents. Soon after, they successfully resettled the family with my own team in a sanctuary country. Throughout this entire ordeal, the U.S.-based team leader was always available, responding promptly to my questions and offering guidance every step of the way. I cannot express enough gratitude for their incredible assistance—without them, giving this family a fresh start would have been impossible.
