Egyptians Without Borders

I am posting this announcement from a new Facebook Group, “Egyptians Without Borders,” which is trying to organize emigre Egyptians all over the world to help Egypt during its transition from dictatorship to democracy.

To All Egyptians who immigrated to the US, Canada, Australia, and Europe over the last 30 years
To All Egyptians who moved to the Gulf looking for better work opportunities over those years.
Congratulations to all of you, Egypt is back.!!

“Egyptians-Without-Borders” is a not-for-profit organization just established to help build a
“Bridge of Support” from Egyptians abroad to their Homeland.
