<div>Hi, my name is Mariana, and I’m here asking for help for my brother, who desperately needs a lawyer for his legal defense.

</div>

<div>He has been detained by ICE in one of the worst detention centers in Florida, and the conditions are heartbreaking — people are treated like they’re less than human, locked in cages, with little hope or dignity.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>My brother has lived in the United States since he was just 13 years old. He’s never done anything wrong — he’s a hardworking, kind-hearted person who has always helped support our family back in Brazil, especially our mother.

</div>

<div>Now, he’s trapped in a system that doesn’t see his humanity, and we have no court date or information about what comes next.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>We are trying to raise $10,000 to hire a lawyer who can fight for his rights and request a bond hearing, giving him a chance to come home while his case is reviewed.

</div>

<div>His life is in Florida, where he’s built everything. There’s nothing waiting for him back home except the family that loves and needs him.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div>Please, if you can help — any donation, no matter how small, will make a difference.

</div>

<div>And if you can’t donate, please share this campaign so we can reach more people.

</div>

<div><br />

</div>

<div> Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your compassion, kindness, and support.

</div>
