Help Bring Our Mom Home

Donation protected
Hi, my name is Galilea Rodriguez.

On 2/23/26, my mother was taken into immigration custody following a traffic stop. What began as an ordinary day quickly turned into something our family never expected.

My mother has lived in the United States for 27 years and has no criminal history. She has devoted her life to raising her six children and building a loving, stable home for our family.

I am the oldest at 23 years old, and I am now stepping in to help care for my five younger siblings (ages 16, 16, 15, 11, and 6) as we navigate this difficult time together.

We are working urgently to secure legal representation and an immigration bond so we can bring her home while her case moves through the court system. The financial burden has come suddenly and has placed significant strain on our family.

If you know my mom, you know she is kind, welcoming, and deeply devoted to her children. She has always been the heart of our family.

Any support — whether through a donation, legal guidance, prayers, or simply sharing this page — means more than we can express. We are holding onto hope and doing everything we can to bring her home.

Thank you for taking the time to read our story and for keeping us in your thoughts.

Thank you for standing with our family,
Galilea

Hola, mi nombre es Galilea Rodriguez.

El 23 de febrero de 2026, mi mamá fue puesta bajo custodia de inmigración después de una parada de tráfico. Lo que comenzó como un día normal se convirtió rápidamente en algo que nuestra familia nunca imaginó.

Mi mamá ha vivido en los Estados Unidos durante 27 años y no tiene antecedentes penales. Ha dedicado su vida a criar a sus seis hijos y a construir un hogar lleno de amor y estabilidad para nuestra familia.

Yo soy la mayor, tengo 23 años, y ahora estoy apoyando y cuidando a mis cinco hermanos menores (de 16, 16, 15, 11 y 6 años) mientras atravesamos este momento tan difícil juntos.

Estamos trabajando urgentemente para asegurar representación legal y una fianza de inmigración para poder traerla a casa mientras su caso continúa en la corte. La carga financiera llegó de manera inesperada y ha puesto una gran presión sobre nuestra familia.

Si conoces a mi mamá, sabes que es una persona amable, acogedora y profundamente dedicada a sus hijos. Siempre ha sido el corazón de nuestra familia.

Cualquier apoyo — ya sea una donación, orientación legal, oraciones, o simplemente compartir esta página — significa más de lo que podemos expresar. Nos estamos aferrando a la esperanza y haciendo todo lo posible para traerla de regreso a casa.

Gracias por tomarte el tiempo de leer nuestra historia y por mantenernos en tus pensamientos.

Gracias por apoyar a nuestra familia,
Galilea
