Trump's attacks on immigration just took a terrifying turn.

He's buying up warehouses to lock up thousands of people across the US. The ICE director says he wants deportations to operate like Amazon Prime.

But human beings are not packages.

They are mothers, fathers, and children who came to America for a better life. Instead, they are being violently torn from their communities and thrown into massive human warehouses.

Some will almost certainly die.

Right now, families are scrambling to secure lawyers before their loved ones disappear. Legal representation makes a huge difference to the outcome of their case, but local groups do not have enough resources to help everyone in need.

We can help. If enough of us chip in, we can fund legal assistance for people who have been taken from their homes, and we'll help mutual aid groups who are supporting families through the worst -- delivering groceries and covering rent so children aren't evicted.

Your donation will also support Avaaz's rapid response campaigns, ensuring we can respond at lightning speed when emergencies strike: from funding emergency food kitchens in Sudan, to helping women activists escape from the Taliban.

Avaaz was built for moments like these: member-funded, independent, and ready to stand in solidarity with persecuted communities around the world. Please donate what you can now.
