SUMMARY:November Speaker Series
DESCRIPTION:Congregation Shir Libeynu’s Speaker Series returns! On Sunday\, November 19 at 10:30am\, we present HIVE /.כוורת דבורים representative Brian Kurth who will talk about the organization’s mission: To save the lives of LGBTQ Afghans fleeing the Taliban. \nHIVE /.כוורת דבורים main objectives are to: \n\nEnable safe passage from Afghanistan to Pakistan for LGBTQ individuals including attaining and paying for Afghan passports for those without;\nAttain and pay for Pakistani visas and extensions;\nProvide funds on a monthly basis to cover food\, safe shelter\, medicine\, and mobile Internet expenses. English as a second language will be added in the future; and\nApply for legal immigration to Canada* via governmental or private sponsorship by working with a number of nonprofits whose mission is to aid refugees and/or are sponsorship agreement holders (SAHs).\n\nCo-founder Elizabeth Caplan further explains HIVE’s mission: \n“As a lesbian daughter of a Holocaust survivor and one of the earliest Jewish Family Service adoptive placements\, I feel compelled to help these LGBTQ brothers and sisters of mine. My parents instilled in me the notion that I must not only realize my own generational dreams but that I am also commanded to protect and uphold other refugees whose very survival rests upon the aid of others. My parents’ dreams were not only to make my brother’s and my lives better than their own but for us to make the lives of others easier.” \nHIVE / כוורת דבורים is the creation of siblings Elizabeth and Adam Caplan in memory and recognition of their Holocaust survivor mother\, Doris; and father\, Stanley Caplan. \n*Canada prioritizes LGBTQ Afghan refugees since they are individuals at high risk of deportation where the death penalty is often applied to anyone who is a known member of the LGBTQ community. \nJoin us on Sunday\, November 19 at 10:30am to learn more about this impressive organization and the work it is doing. \nRegistration required. The Zoom link will be sent only to those who have registered for this event. Register here.
