On Friday, June 6, 2025, our loved one — a devoted son, husband, and grandfather — was detained by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) while at his workplace. We’re reaching out with heavy hearts. This is an incredibly difficult time for our family, but we are determined to do everything possible to ensure he has the legal support and resources needed to fight for his freedom and reunite with us.

The cost of legal representation and the possibility of bond are significant financial hurdles for us. Immigration law is complex, and having an experienced lawyer can make all the difference in navigating this process and ensuring Manuel's rights are protected.

He is a hardworking man who has always prioritized his family. His absence has left a deep emotional and financial strain on those who rely on him. We are doing everything in our power to ensure he receives a fair legal process, but we cannot do it alone.

We are humbly asking for your help. Every donation — no matter the amount — brings us closer to securing the legal resources he urgently needs. If you're unable to contribute financially, we would be incredibly grateful if you could share this campaign with others.

Thank you for standing with us during this difficult time. Your support means more than words can express.
