Help Reunite Eriane with Her Daughter

This past week, my housekeeper and dear friend, Eriane, was abruptly detained by ICE on her way to work. It is heartbreaking and surreal to witness this happening to someone so kind, trustworthy, and hardworking.

In just seven months of knowing her, I’ve seen firsthand her incredible dedication—not only in her work, where she goes above and beyond—but more importantly, as a devoted mother to her 7-year-old daughter, Valenttina. Every day, she works tirelessly to provide for Valenttina’s medical needs and give her the best chance at a brighter future.

Eriane has no criminal background. She has lived in the U.S. for the past ten years, building a better life for her daughter with grace, resilience, and a heart of gold. Now, her family is suddenly burdened with thousands of dollars in unexpected legal fees as they fight to bring her home and reunite her with her little girl.

This is not just a story—it’s real life. And it’s devastating. Any donation, no matter the size, will help support Eriane’s legal defense and bring her back where she belongs: with her daughter.

Thank you so much for your generosity, compassion, and prayers.
