The country is Bulgaria. His English is fluent. He has developed a project which requires funding, yet no one wants to fund, because of the unstable situation.

Please ask your dad to send me an email (or mail me directly). I will be back in Romania in early July, I could conceivably hop over to Bulgaria to talk this over in person.

I've done a few other things like this with good results:

I just want you to know I teared up reading your post. I dont know the OP but I have gone through similar situation with my own father and am so grateful there are people like you trying to help total strangers.

You're one of my favorite people on HN. FWIW.

I second Thaumaturgy and Yepyepyep's comments. This was an amazing comment and you're one of my favourites.

Good for you - my current project started the same way (the kindness of another person).

[vsergiu]

Can you give more details about the project?

Bulgaria is an EU member, so he should be able to work in another EU country. I know Netherland has a shortage of good tech people. Maybe he can look for a job there?

Have you thought of doing a Kickstarter?

[dewey]

Kickstarter is US/UK-only.

[jkaljundi]

You can do Indiegogo anywhere I believe. But even for Kickstarter to set up or find intermediaries&friends in the US is easy. Many European projects there that way.
