Provide your support to the family of Majd Kamalmaz to unlock resources to enhance lobbying and diplomatic efforts to bring Majd home.


We Need Your Help

Majd Kamalmaz is a 61 year old American husband, father, therapist, and humanitarian that was unlawfully detained by the Syrian government and has been held there since February 15, 2017. His family has not heard from him since his unlawful detainment and are extremely worried about his poor health conditions. Majd is a chronic diabetic and has suffered from two strokes in the past. They are working hard along with the U.S. government to bring Majd safely home.



"Our Father is Missing"

Almost 3 years ago my colleague Majd Kamalmaz seemed to have dropped off the face of the earth just weeks before I was to travel to Lebanon to begin work on a new humanitarian project we developed.  The Al Wakar program was designed to help elderly refugees and Lebanese elders in Lebanon suffering with trauma find psycho-emotional relief using HeartMath® breathing techniques. I knew something was wrong. In the short time I had known Majd I knew him to be a considerate man who would never just vanish without communicating. I searched the internet to find someone who could tell me  what happened and that is when I came across his daughter's page on social media. I reached out and she told me something I will never forget, "Our father is missing."

How You Can Help

Donating financial resources is a great way to help. I have created this LaunchGood account to support the family of Majd Kamalmaz  with the financial expenses incurred in their lobbying efforts to obtain his release after nearly three years of unlawful detention in Syria. The efforts have places a huge burden on their family and this is an easy way we can support them and lift them up as a community.


Where Will The Money Go?

Funds raised through LaunchGood for Majd Kamalmaz will go directly to the family and be used by them for travel expenses to Washington DC. His family will be able to meet with US Gov. Officials, attend necessary events and lobby on behalf of their father in order to bring him home. Funds will also subsidize the loss of Majd’s sole supporting income over the past three years to cover necessary expenses.

  • Majd's family must travel to DC on a MONTHLY basis in order to aggressively pursue their father's freedom. 
  • Hiring experienced lawyers to turn up the heat on congressmen and senators to take action to bring Majd home
  • Cover basic household expenses that have accrued in his absence.

Thank you for your very kind and generous donations to the Launchgood Fund to Bring Majd Kamalmaz Home. Next month, the Kamalmaz family will travel to Washington DC for a Vigil for Peace to commemorate the 3 year anniversary of Majd's detention in Syria and meet with Congressmen and media to bring attention to Majd's case. Together, with your help, we have raised almost $2300, which will cover the travel costs for the family for February. On behalf of the Kamalmaz family, we are heartfully grateful for your care and support in this difficult time. ​​​
