No matter where people put blame for Afghanistan, one place almost everyone
agrees is that we need to get as many innocent, at-risk people out as possible
quickly -- including those who risked their lives to help America over the
years.
One way you can help today is to donate frequent flier miles, credit card
points, or cash to
Miles4Migrants.<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fact.boldprogressives.org%2Fgo%2F59784%3Ft%3D8%26akid%3D80690.54401.BGgCvy&data=04%7C01%7C%7C20a97550302849093db308d9610981bc%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637647515723079085%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=BObX3qQf8jSrvj8NwcT6r2gcr5dP%2BZt8oHu0p9QIQGE%3D&reserved=0>
Miles4Migrants is a non-profit organization that helps refugees,
asylum-seekers, and their immediate family members who have legal approval to
travel but cannot afford airfare.
You can also donate to the International Refugee Assistance
Project.<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fact.boldprogressives.org%2Fgo%2F59785%3Ft%3D9%26akid%3D80690.54401.BGgCvy&data=04%7C01%7C%7C20a97550302849093db308d9610981bc%7C84df9e7fe9f640afb435aaaaaaaaaaaa%7C1%7C0%7C637647515723089078%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C1000&sdata=k0j1oldvGOsUR54xqH5M5K%2FuHNbSBdv1qEM7iQv10xQ%3D&reserved=0>
IRAP works to defend the legal and human rights of refugees and displaced
people around the world and has multiple programs right now specifically for
Afghan refugees.
