WELCOME to my Plumfund campaign.
WHAT HELP DO I NEED? I have setup this campaign to raise money to help me pay for a new work visa. My current visa has to be renewed every year and expires on June 30th. I have stayed in the US paying visa & lawyer fees every year since 2002, when I moved to the US from Ireland. This new work visa is far more expensive than previous visas and beyond my reach financially.
This new visa will allow me to remain in the US and to work as a musician and an actor. The costs involved are aprox $5,000. Additionally, I owe aprox $1000 in legal fees (from last years visa application). Therefore our initial goal is $6000. However, the total cost of the visa is difficult to be specific with simply because of various taxes, filing fees involved which increase regularly. Also, as anyone who has had to apply for a US visa will tell you, no matter how prepared you think you are, unforseen legal expenses can arise.
TRANSPARENCY is critical to me doing a campaign like this. I will be updating donors specifically on how their donations are spent. I want make sure that donors can see that all money donated is going exactly where it's supposed to.
If you cannot donate YOU CAN STILL HELP! How? You can share this campaign on social media, via e-mail etc.. AND/OR please pass it on to anyone you think maybe interested in supporting this campaign.
There's a lot at stake for me here personally & professionally. I wouldn't be asking for your help if I didn't really need it. Remember also that when you help me you are also in directly helping my sons, Matthew (19) & Daniel (11).
Thank you for your support.
Hugh :)
