When Amber called us from Egypt she was terrified. The night before, her husband had locked her and her young daughter Madison in the storage room of their house and threatened to burn down the house with them in it.
Amber tried to make Madison think her father was just playing hide and seek but it was hard to hide the terror she felt inside. Amber kept asking "why is daddy yelling? He sounds mad."
The violence was getting worse and worse and Amber was in fear of their lives.
Because of donations like yours, our case managers were able to get Amber and Madison out of Egypt and back home to the USA within 2 weeks.
Thank you for caring about battered American mothers and thier children overseas! The AODVC Team
