This GoFundMe site is in support of a Bateman school/Irving Park community family as they navigate the legal system and access support to advocate for their rights as well as cover some essential needs for the family.

From the parent, "My husband Samat, the honest provider for our family, was detained by ICE at his workplace in late October despite having no criminal record. Now, I am left alone with our two young children while managing my own health struggles. We are fighting to bring him home from a detention center that is out of state, but we urgently need help covering the attorney and legal fees. Please, any donation helps keep our family together during this devastating time. Thank you in advance to everyone who responds and supports us."
