I'm raising funds for my aunt, who is currently being held in a detention center in Louisiana and separated from her two children, who are 4 and 15 years old. Our family is doing everything we can to help bring her back home and reunite her with her children during this incredibly difficult time.

Right now, her children are in my care while this process continues. Seeing them go through this separation has made the situation even more painful for our family. The 4-year-old does not understand what is happening or where their mother is, and that has been especially hard to witness. Her 15-year-old is doing their best to stay motivated and positive during this difficult time.

We have found a lawyer who is helping with her case and giving us hope, but we need support to cover the legal expenses and related costs involved in reuniting this mother with her children. Every donation will go toward the costs necessary to continue this process and help our family keep moving forward.

If you are able to give, please know that any amount can make a real difference. If you cannot donate, sharing this fundraiser would also mean so much to us. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your kindness, prayers, and support as we work to bring my aunt back to her children.

Estoy recaudando fondos para mi tía, quien actualmente está detenida en un centro de detención en Louisiana y separada de sus dos hijos, de 4 y 15 años. Nuestra familia está haciendo todo lo posible para ayudar a traerla de regreso a casa y reunirla con sus hijos durante este momento tan difícil.

En este momento, sus hijos están bajo mi cuidado mientras este proceso continúa. Verlos pasar por esta separación ha hecho que esta situación sea aún más dolorosa para nuestra familia. El niño de 4 años no entiende lo que está pasando ni dónde está su mamá, y eso ha sido especialmente difícil de presenciar. Su hijo de 15 años está haciendo todo lo posible por mantenerse motivado y positivo durante este tiempo tan difícil.

Hemos encontrado un abogado que está ayudando con su caso y dándonos esperanza, pero necesitamos apoyo para cubrir los gastos legales y otros costos necesarios para reunir a esta madre con sus hijos. Cada donación se destinará a los costos necesarios para continuar este proceso y ayudar a nuestra familia a seguir adelante.

Si puede colaborar, por favor sepa que cualquier cantidad puede marcar una verdadera diferencia. Si no puede donar, compartir esta campaña también significaría muchísimo para nosotros. Gracias de todo corazón por su bondad, sus oraciones y su apoyo mientras trabajamos para traer a mi tía de regreso con sus hijos.
