This family have been forced to flee their homeland but are stuck in Colombia until they have sufficient funds to buy fares to Spain.

Im sure you’re aware of the humanitarian crises in Venezuela. 2 million citizens have fled the country. Carlos and Doris were students then staff with us in Venezuela in the ‘90s. Since then they’ve had two children and now find themselves as refugees in neibouring Colombia, staying temporarily with YWAM Cartagena.
They are trying to get to Spain where a Christian ministry will receive them but do not have the necesary money to buy airfares.
Compounding their problems, Carlos’ teenage son shot a video of his friend being beaten by Venezuelan military thugs. He managed’ to upload it before being arrested, beaten and imprisoned. He was released a few days later but the video went viral and now the family have fled Venezuela for fear of reprisals. As faith workers they have no financial resources of their own, just the generosity of friends. In this case friends of friends. Please give, even if it is just a little. It all helps and then we will reach our target.
Carlos and Doris were staff with us in YWAM Venezuela. They are now refugees trying to get to Spain. I want to raise enough to fly them to Spain.
I will receive the funds, then transfer via PayPal to Carlos when they are ready to purchase the tickets.
