<div>If you're new to this story, here's the brief version!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Ismael is a former student of mine and comes from an amazing family. His father and brother were detained in January. His father was released on bond, but his 19 year old brother remains in ICE custody in El Paso. The conditions are deplorable and his health is deteriorating. We are trying absolutely everything we can to bring him home!
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>He's an exemplar of a kid- 4.0 student on a full ride to the University of Minnesota, lives in the home his parents own, works and studies hard, has a steady girlfriend and takes great care of his younger brother. Please help us bring this gem home with his family, where he belongs.

</div>
<div>Ismael is a former student of mine and one of the most amazing young men I know. His family has recently experienced great trauma due to immigration activities here in Minnesota, and they are now facing urgent financial needs. The stress and uncertainty have been overwhelming for them, and they are doing everything they can to stay together and support one another during this difficult time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>The funds raised will go directly toward lawyer fees, supporting family members, and covering essential monthly expenses. Every dollar will help Ismael's family fight for their future and provide some relief from the mounting pressures they are facing. Your support can make a real difference in helping them navigate this challenging situation.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>This family is incredibly special to me, and I am asking for your help to reunite them. Please consider donating or sharing this fundraiser with others who might be able to help. Your kindness and generosity will mean the world to Ismael and his loved ones.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>SECOND UPDATE: I am over here in tears, friends! The Midwest Immigration Bond Relief Fund just notified us that they can cover Ismael's father's bond in full. This means that the money we have raised can cover rent, lawyer costs, the cost of lost wages this month, and the cost of transporting Ismael's father back home as soon as next week! We are also very hopeful that it will be able to cover bond for Ismael's brother, which we will find out on Wednesday. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>UPDATE:
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We just had the first bond hearing! Amazingly, the judge granted a bond for Ismael's father. We are SO thankful- but it was more than we expected! His bond is set at 7,500. We have the bond hearing for Ismael's brother next week, so we are upping our goal to get his family home as soon as we possibly can. We are so thankful for your support so far, and it would mean the world if you are able to continue to support this family!

</div>
<div>Ismael es un estudiante mío y uno de los jóvenes más extraordinarios que conozco. Su familia ha sufrido recientemente un gran trauma debido a las dificultades migratorias aquí en Minnesota, y ahora se enfrentan a urgentes necesidades económicas. El estrés y la incertidumbre han sido abrumadores para ellos, y están haciendo todo lo posible para permanecer unidos y apoyarse mutuamente durante este difícil momento.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Los fondos recaudados se destinarán directamente a los honorarios del abogado, al apoyo de los miembros de la familia y a cubrir los gastos mensuales esenciales. Cada dólar ayudará a la familia de Ismael a luchar por su futuro y a aliviar la creciente presión que están sufriendo. Su apoyo puede marcar una verdadera diferencia para ayudarlos a superar esta difícil situación.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Esta familia es increíblemente importante para mí, y les pido su ayuda para que puedan reunirse. Por favor, consideren hacer una donación o compartir esta campaña de recaudación de fondos con otras personas que puedan ayudar. Su bondad y generosidad significarán muchísimo para Ismael y sus seres queridos.
</div>
