My husband and I are facing a challenging time as he goes through immigration proceedings. The legal fees for his appeal are overwhelming, and we need to raise funds quickly to meet the deadline for filing. As a teacher and a gig worker, our resources are limited, and the pressure of these costs is affecting our ability to focus on work, daily life, and the other needs of our family. Over the past year, we have already paid significant fees and attorney costs for our I-130, and we are facing even more expenses related to other immigration fees. Our immigration journey is not over—while the I-130 is being processed, we need to continue to appeal his asylum claim, which brings additional legal and financial challenges. We are doing everything we can to keep our family together and navigate this process, but we can't do it alone.

Support from this fundraiser will bring us peace of mind and allow us to continue working while covering the legal fees. It will also give us the flexibility to handle any emergencies that may arise during this stressful period. Your help will make a real difference in our lives, giving us hope and stability when we need it most.

We are deeply grateful for the prayers and support we've already received from friends, church members, school colleagues, and coworkers. Their kindness has helped us get through each day, and we are reaching out now to ask for your help as well. Any contribution, no matter the size, will mean so much to us and help us move forward. We are also asking for your continued prayers as we navigate this difficult time. Thank you for standing with us.
