<div>We are reaching out to you with a heavy heart to share the story of our dear friend, Hernan Castro, who is currently facing serious immigration charges that threaten his future in the United States. Hernan is being accused of immigration fraud, despite being a lawful permanent resident of the United States for over 20 years. His lawyer does not believe that he has committed any crime and is prepared to fight this case, but it will take some time. He was taken into custody with no warning and has been held in custody since May 31. His friends and family are doing everything possible to get him back home, but we need some help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hernan is being unjustly punished despite going through all the legal avenues of citizenship - he has been a green card holder for over 20 years and was trying to apply for full citizenship. This case highlights a significant issue in our current immigration system, in which individuals can be unfairly torn from their families and lives even when they go through all the proper legal process of immigration, and even after living in this country legally for decades.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Hernan is not just an individual facing legal challenges, he is a vital part of our Tucson community. He is deeply passionate about mushroom cultivation, identification, education and ethical harvesting. When not researching mushrooms, Hernan contributes his time and knowledge to promote eco-friendly practices and educate others about the importance of cleaning and preserving our environment. His commitment to the community makes him an invaluable asset, and he deserves the chance to continue his important work and community building here in Arizona.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>To contest the immigration fraud charges and advocate for Hernan, we need the assistance of a skilled immigration attorney who understands the complexities of this case and can help navigate the legal system. The costs associated with legal representation can be overwhelming, often exceeding tens of thousands of dollars, and we are asking for your help.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Our goal is to raise funds to help cover attorney fees, court costs, and additional expenses related to his defense and detention. Every donation, no matter how small, will make a significant difference in his fight for justice. With your generosity, we can help Hernan return home to his family as soon as possible.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Please consider donating to our campaign and sharing Hernan’s story with your network. Together, we can stand up for justice and uphold the values of compassion and community that we cherish. Thank you for your kindness and support during this challenging time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This fundraiser is set up and managed by myself, Casiana Omick, Hernan Castro's partner. The funds will be used by me to pay for the needs listed above related to his detention and defense.
</div>
