#RefugeesWelcome

Based on current events, #RefugeesWelcome conveys the story of Aisha, a prosperous woman from Syria that has done nothing but good to society. Her world comes crashing down when a bomb drops meters away from the Aleppo Bazaar while she is in it. Attacks like these continue and she is forced to escape the country- leaving her home, family and religion behind in order to survive as she goes through a very rough journey to find refuge in the United States of America.
