Help Lina Fight for Her Life and Reunite With Her Daughter

We are asking for help for Lina, a survivor of a horrific act of domestic violence. Lina was shot and is currently hospitalized, fighting for her life. Her recovery will be long and difficult, and during this unimaginable time, she is facing it almost completely alone.

Lina has no family in Texas. While she remains hospitalized, the state temporarily placed her young daughter in Child Protective Services, simply because Lina was injured and unable to care for her at that moment. One of Lina’s greatest fears right now is being separated from her child while she heals.

The funds raised will go directly toward helping Lina survive and rebuild her life, including:
• Daily living expenses while she is hospitalized and during recovery
• Transportation and travel costs to bring family from abroad to Texas to support her
• Legal and reunification-related expenses to help her regain custody of her daughter
• Housing and basic necessities for Lina and her daughter once she is discharged
• Support during her long physical and emotional recovery

No one should have to endure violence, fight for their life, and fear losing their child all at once. Lina deserves safety, dignity, and the chance to heal surrounded by love and support.

Any donation—no matter the size—will make a meaningful difference. If you’re unable to donate, please consider sharing this fundraiser so others can help.

Thank you for your compassion, prayers, and support during this critical time.


Ayude a Lina a luchar por su vida y reencontrarse con su hija

Solicitamos ayuda para Lina, sobreviviente de un terrible acto de violencia doméstica. Lina recibió múltiples disparo y se encuentra hospitalizada, luchando por su vida. Su recuperación será larga y difícil, y durante este momento inimaginable, la enfrenta casi completamente sola.

Lina no tiene familia en Texas. Mientras permanece hospitalizada, el estado colocó temporalmente a su pequeña hija en los Servicios de Protección Infantil, simplemente porque Lina resultó herida y no pudo cuidarla en ese momento. Uno de los mayores temores de Lina en este momento es separarse de su hija mientras se recupera.

Los fondos recaudados se destinarán directamente a ayudar a Lina a sobrevivir y reconstruir su vida, incluyendo:
• Gastos de manutención durante su hospitalización y recuperación
• Gastos de transporte y viaje para traer a familiares del extranjero a Texas para apoyarla
• Gastos legales y de reunificación para ayudarla a recuperar la custodia de su hija
• Alojamiento y necesidades básicas para Lina y su hija una vez que reciba el alta
• Apoyo durante su larga recuperación física y emocional

Nadie debería tener que soportar violencia, luchar por su vida y temer perder a su hijo al mismo tiempo. Lina merece seguridad, dignidad y la oportunidad de sanar rodeada de amor y apoyo.

Cualquier donación, sin importar la cantidad, marcará una diferencia significativa. Si no puede donar, considere compartir esta recaudación de fondos para que otros puedan ayudar.

Gracias por su compasión, oraciones y apoyo durante este momento crítico.
