Help Diego's Family Stay Together

Donation protected

On a regular morning, Diego left home to go to work, just like he always did.

Diego is a hardworking father, husband, and provider who has lived in the United States since 2015. He works in remodeling and has spent years doing everything he could to support his family, pay rent and bills, provide food for his children, and even send money back home to help his parents.

Family has always been at the center of Diego’s life.

Even after long days of work, he always made time for his wife and daughters, taking them to parks, church, family outings, shopping together, and playing hide and seek at home. Those who know him describe him as responsible, kind, hardworking, and deeply devoted to his family.
Recently, Diego was detained in Virginia and is currently being held in a Detention Center.
His detention has left his family in an incredibly painful and uncertain situation.

His wife is now trying to navigate this nightmare while caring for their two young daughters, ages 7 and 2. Right now, the girls still do not fully understand what has happened to their father.

One of the hardest moments has been trying to answer the simple question every child asks:
“Where is my dad? When is he coming home from work?”

Diego was the main provider for the household, and his family is now struggling to cover monthly rent, utilities, food, basic household needs, a car payment, and the growing costs of legal representation.

The family is urgently trying to raise funds for legal support and related expenses. They have been informed that attorney fees may total around $7,500 as they fight to keep Diego with his family and explore every legal option available to them.

This family never imagined they would be in this position.

As Diego’s wife shared:
“I would hear and see stories like this on social media, but I never expected it would happen to me.”

Any contribution, no matter the amount, will help relieve some of the overwhelming financial and emotional pressure this family is carrying during this difficult time.

If you are unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser and keeping Diego and his family in your thoughts and prayers.

Thank you for supporting Diego’s daughters, his wife, and a family that is simply trying to stay together.

En una mañana como cualquier otra, Diego salió de su casa para ir a trabajar, como siempre lo hacía.

Diego es un padre, esposo y proveedor trabajador que ha vivido en los Estados Unidos desde el 2015. Trabaja en remodelación y ha pasado años haciendo todo lo posible para apoyar a su familia, pagar la renta y fracturas, poner comida en la mesa para sus hijos e incluso enviar dinero a sus padres en su país.

La familia siempre ha sido el centro de la vida de Diego.

Aun después de largos días de trabajo, siempre hacía tiempo para su esposa y sus hijas: llevarlas al parque, a la iglesia, salir en familia, ir de compras juntos y jugar a las escondidas en casa. Quienes lo conocen lo describen como una persona responsable, amable, trabajadora y profundamente dedicada a su familia.

Recientemente, Diego fue detenido en Virginia y actualmente se encuentra en un centro de detención.

Su detención ha dejado a su familia en una situación muy dolorosa e incierta.
Su esposa ahora está tratando de enfrentar esta pesadilla mientras cuida a sus dos hijas pequeñas, de 7 y 2 años. En este momento, las niñas todavía no entienden completamente lo que ha pasado con su papá.

Uno de los momentos más difíciles ha sido tratar de responder la simple pregunta que hace cualquier niño: “¿Dónde está mi papá? ¿Cuándo va a regresar del trabajo?”

Diego era el principal proveedor del hogar y ahora su familia está teniendo dificultades para cubrir la renta mensual, los servicios básicos, la comida, las necesidades del hogar, el pago del carro y los crecientes costos de representación legal.

La familia está tratando urgentemente de recaudar fondos para apoyo legal y gastos relacionados. Les han informado que los honorarios legales podrían alcanzar aproximadamente $7,500 mientras luchan por mantener a Diego junto a su familia y explorar todas las opciones legales disponibles.

Esta familia nunca imaginó estar en esta situación.

Como compartió la esposa de Diego: “Yo veía y escuchaba historias así en las redes sociales, pero nunca pensé que esto me iba a pasar a mí.”

Cualquier contribución, sin importar la cantidad, ayudará a aliviar parte de la enorme presión financiera y emocional que esta familia está enfrentando en este momento tan difícil.

Si no puedes donar, por favor considera compartir esta recaudación y mantener a Diego y a su familia en tus pensamientos y oraciones.
Gracias por apoyar a las hijas de Diego, a su esposa y a una familia que simplemente está tratando de permanecer unida.
