Help Bring Lucas Home

Donation protected
My name is Lisette, and I'm reaching out for help during an incredibly difficult time for my family.
On May 2nd, 2025, our beloved uncle, Lucas, was detained by ICE. He was being deported to Colombia from Florida, but instead was left in Louisiana where he remains detained with no clear timeline.
Lucas is a devoted single father to two young daughters who desperately need their father home. His youngest daughter is a cancer survivor with ongoing medical needs. The conditions at the detention center are taking a serious toll; he's losing weight due to limited food and struggling with the uncertainty.
We initially worked with a lawyer but had to stop due to high costs. The situation became increasingly confusing when he was put on a plane in Florida but then removed in Louisiana and placed in a different detention center.
How Your Donation Will Help:
  • Legal assistance: Hire an immigration attorney immediately to get clarity on his case and fight for his release
  • Emergency travel expenses: Cover anticipated costs when he's released, as he's being sent to Bogotá but lives elsewhere in Colombia
  • Family support: Help cover his daughters' medical needs, school expenses, basic necessities, and communication costs while he's unable to work
This is an urgent situation. Every effort and every dollar helps us get closer to reuniting our family. We are grateful for any support you can provide, whether through a donation or by sharing our story.
Thank you for your kindness and generosity during this challenging time.
With gratitude, Lisette
