If you know Henri, you know what a helpful person and true friend he is. He’s the first to show up when someone needs him and always ready to lend a hand.

Now Henri and his family urgently need us to show up for them. Henri was recently taken into ICE custody. He has been unable to work since he was detained, and his family is facing an immediate crisis. Our primary focus right now is raising the necessary funds to secure legal representation to free Henri from custody, while also helping his family cover critical housing and everyday living expenses during this sudden loss of income.

Henri has worked hard his entire life and alongside his wife, is raising three fantastic children. Two attend college—one at Dutchess Community College and the other at Marist—and their youngest is in grammar school. Their children’s education and accomplishments are a source of great pride for the family. Today, his wife and children are are entirely dependent on community support to navigate this challenging time.

What is most pressing are funds to pay for the attorney fees required to fight for Henri's freedom, followed closely by keeping a roof over his family's head.

Henri has been there for so many of us. If you’re able, please contribute whatever you can and pass this fundraiser along to friends and others in your community. Every act of support will make a real difference in bringing Henri home and protecting his family.

Thank you.
