Help Mari Care for Her Sister's Children and Hire a Lawyer

Donation protected
Aria, a single mother, did everything "the right way." She never missed an immigration appointment, and she has a pending asylum application. When she attended an ICE check-in appointment on January 31, 2026, she was detained anyway. Her sister, Mari, is now struggling to make ends meet as she provides for her own daughter (age 11) and Aria's 2 children (ages 2 and 5) who now live with Mari. Mari lives in Carroll County and works hard in a local restaurant, but with no one to share expenses with since her sister was taken, she has fallen behind on rent and needs immediate assistance to stay in her apartment. Aria was taken to Louisiana, and Mari is hoping to also raise money so that her sister can be represented by a lawyer in her upcoming hearing. Please help Mari maintain a stable home and raise funds to help her sister hire a lawyer and reunite with her children.

Aria, una madre soltera, hizo todo "de la manera correcta." Nunca faltó a una cita de inmigración y tiene una solicitud de asilo pendiente. Cuando asistió a una cita de registro con ICE el 31 de enero de 2026, fue detenida de todos modos. Su hermana, Mari, ahora está luchando para sobrevivir cada fin de mes mientras cuida a su propia hija (de 11 años) y a los 2 hijos de Aria (de 2 y 5 años) que vive ahora con Mari. Mari trabaja duro en un restaurante local, pero no tiene con quién compartir los gastos desde que secuestraron a su hermana. Por eso, Mari se ha atrasado en el pago del alquiler y necesita ayuda inmediata para permanecer en su apartamento. Aria fue llevada a Luisiana, y Mari espera también recaudar dinero para que su hermana pueda contar con un abogado en su próxima audiencia. Por favor, ayuden a Mari a mantener un hogar estable y a recaudar fondos para ayudar a su hermana a contratar un abogado y reunirse con sus hijos.
