Ms. M, a beloved Bancroft parent, is facing deportation due to a legal error made by a former attorney. She urgently needs funds to cover legal fees so she can remain in the U.S. with her children. Let’s come together to keep this family and our community whole.

Ms. M is a caring, devoted mother and a cherished member of the Bancroft school community. Ten years ago, she came to the United States from Guatemala seeking safety and a better future for her children

Today, she faces an unimaginable challenge. Because her former attorney failed to properly file her immigration paperwork, Ms. M now has a removal hearing scheduled for November. Her new attorney is working urgently to fix these errors and present her case, but the legal fees must be paid quickly in order to move forward.

Ms. M has been unable to work while this issue is being resolved, leaving her without income to cover the costs of her defense. She needs our help and she needs it soon.

Those who know Ms. M describe her as someone who never hesitates to lend a hand. She has cared for other parents’ children as if they were her own, volunteered her time, and been a steady source of kindness in our community. Now, it’s our turn to show that same compassion and support.

How You Can Help:
Donations will go directly toward Ms. M’s legal fees and necessary expenses to secure her right to stay in the U.S. with her children. Every contribution will make a real difference.

Let’s come together as a community to ensure that Ms. M and her children can remain safe, together, and part of the Bancroft family they love.

Please donate what you can and share this fundraiser widely. Together, we can keep this family — and our community — whole.

La Sra. M es una madre cariñosa y dedicada, y un miembro muy querido de la comunidad escolar de Bancroft. Hace diez años, llegó a Estados Unidos desde Guatemala en busca de seguridad y un futuro mejor para sus hijos.

Hoy, enfrenta un desafío inimaginable. Debido a que su antiguo abogado no presentó correctamente su documentación migratoria, la Sra. M tiene una audiencia de deportación programada para noviembre. Su nuevo abogado está trabajando urgentemente para corregir estos errores y presentar su caso, pero los honorarios legales deben pagarse rápidamente para poder avanzar.

La Sra. M no ha podido trabajar mientras se resuelve este asunto, lo que la ha dejado sin ingresos para cubrir los costos de su defensa. Necesita nuestra ayuda y la necesita pronto.

Quienes la conocen la describen como alguien que nunca duda en ayudar. Ha cuidado a los hijos de otros padres como si fueran suyos, ha dedicado su tiempo como voluntaria y ha sido una fuente constante de bondad en nuestra comunidad. Ahora, nos toca a nosotros mostrar esa misma compasión y apoyo.

Cómo puedes ayudar:
Las donaciones se destinarán directamente a los honorarios legales de la Sra. M y a los gastos necesarios para garantizar su derecho a permanecer en EE. UU. con sus hijos. Cada contribución marcará una gran diferencia.

Unámonos como comunidad para garantizar que la Sra. M y sus hijos puedan permanecer seguros, juntos y parte de la familia Bancroft que tanto aman.
