This isn't like my other Giving Tuesday emails

Hi – This is a quick note to tell you some great news: we are so close to reaching the goal I set of raising $10K! Our community stepped up to contribute $3,750 — and since a generous donor is doubling every gift, we actually raised $7,500!! Now, if 50 of us give just $25, we can easily close the gap!  
Join me in saving lives with a gift of $25 today. Every cent goes to free legal help for queer, trans, and HIV-positive immigrants and families.
I couldn’t live openly as a trans man in Egypt. I feared death. People from Jamaica, El Salvador, Zimbabwe, Russia, and so many other countries carry the same fear. With Immigration Equality’s support, refugees can secure safe haven in the U.S. and live as their true selves.
I can’t think of a more extraordinary gift than that.  
Donate today: https://imeq.wedid.it/campaigns/8470 
Warmly,

Hi Friend—Today is Giving Tuesday and World AIDS Day, the perfect day to support Immigration Equality, an organization that routinely saves the lives of LGBTQ and HIV-positive immigrants. They saved my life by helping me win asylum, and with your help, they can save countless more.

Will you donate $10 today so I can reach my goal of raising $10K this week? For a limited time, a generous donor will be matching all gifts 100%.

Donate today and your gift will be DOUBLED!

If you missed my message yesterday, here's what you need to know: I'm a trans man from Egypt, and I lived a closeted life for decades. I feared death if someone discovered my true gender identity.

I escaped Egypt and won asylum with free legal representation from the Immigration Equality team. Today, I’m asking you to join me with a gift of $10 so we can raise $10K this week to save even more lives.

Turn $10 into $20 this Giving Tuesday!

With asylum, and now U.S. citizenship, I feel untouchable. All I want to do is give back. Thank you for your support. It means the world to me.
