My name is Catalina, and I am an immigrant from El Salvador currently living in Baltimore. My journey to America was filled with hope for a better life, but along the way, I was separated from my family. My son is a U.S. citizen, but I am not, and this has made it even harder to create a safe and stable life for us both. Being unhoused in a new country has brought daily challenges, from finding a safe place to sleep to worrying about how I will provide for myself and my loved ones.

Despite these hardships, I am determined to rebuild and create a brighter future. These funds will help me secure stable housing, cover basic necessities, and support my efforts to get my visa. Most importantly, they will give me the chance to reconnect with my family and bring my son back into a safe environment where we can be together again.

Any support you can give means the world to me. Your kindness will help me rebuild my life, reunite with my son, and give us both hope for a better future. Thank you for standing with me during this difficult time.
