Marlon Iglesias was kidnapped by ICE while he was at work the night of Halloween. His children woke up to the news that while they were trick-or-treating, their father had been taken from them.

Marlon is a beloved father of two children and two stepchildren, and a loving husband of Vanessa. Their world has been turned upside down.

The United States has been Marlon’s home for 40 years. Marlon was brought to the United States from El Salvador by his parents when he was 8. Both his parents are citizens, and he has been working to obtain his own citizenship.

Marlon is the sole financial provider for his family, and without him, they are facing uncertainty and financial hardship. Marlon’s daughter, Marlie, was also recently diagnosed with the autoimmune disorder Type 1 diabetes. She requires multiple insulin injections daily and constant monitoring of her blood sugar.

Marlie has been organizing support for her father and family from the moment he was taken. She has organized the kids in the neighborhood and her teachers. But Marilie and Marlon need our help.

Just for immigration attorney fees alone, Marlon’s family needs to raise $20,000 in the next 30 days.

Marlon is also a wonderful neighbor to many in Northeast DC, and we want our neighbor back home with his family where he belongs. This GoFundMe is hosted by Marlon's neighbor, and his family is the designated beneficiary of this GoFundMe.

Any donation, no matter the amount, would help get Marlon home. If you are not able to donate, sharing this page would also help.
