Help Ilya fight Deportation &stay with his family
Dear friends and community members,

We are reaching out to you today to ask for your help in supporting our mutual friend Ilya, who is facing deportation and possible imprisonment or death in Russia. Ilya has been in the immigration detention center for three months now, and despite his best efforts, he has not been able to resolve his case without additional legal resources.

Ilya is a dedicated family man with a young son and wife. They have been struggling to make ends meet since he was detained, and now they face the added stress of the possibility of his deportation. Recently, Ilya found a lawyer who can take on his complicated case and help him fight his deportation. However, the lawyer requires a retainer fee of $10,500 to get started. Ilya and his family do not have this amount of money and are reaching out to the community for help.

If Ilya is deported to Russia, he will face severe persecution and possible imprisonment or death due to his political beliefs and activism. He is a hardworking individual who has always been dedicated to his work and family, and he deserves to stay in the U.S. where he can live a safe and fulfilling life with his family.

We believe that every human being deserves the right to live without fear of persecution or harm. We are asking for donations of any amount to help Ilya raise the required funds to pay his lawyer's retainer fee. Every dollar counts, and even a small contribution can make a big difference in his life and the lives of his family members. Our goal is to raise $10,500, and we hope to achieve this with the help of our community.

Ilya has a meeting scheduled with his lawyer on May 5th, and we hope to have the funds raised by then so that the lawyer can start working on his case. We understand that times are tough for everyone, but we urge you to donate whatever you can to support our friend Ilya and his family.

Thank you for your time and consideration.
