UPDATE: The response here has been amazing and we cannot thank you enough for the support. We’ve raised the goal to ensure that Tatiana and her family have the best protection possible right now. Appeal paperwork has been submitted but we never know what comes next nor when. Every tiny bit helps!!

Help me help Tatiana, a family friend and wonderful, hardworking person, avoid deportation with her beautiful 10-year-old son. Tatiana entered the US from a dangerous community where she was unable to support her family in Ecuador in 2023. She entered and asked for asylum with intent to go through all proper legal channels, has attended all necessary court dates, done all the correct paperwork, obtained her working papers, and was denied asylum last week. She has 22 days left to appeal the order but absolutely must get legal counsel to have any hope of success.

Getting pro-bono help from attorneys or legal aid organizations has become impossible due to the political situation, but a lawyer is willing to take her on for $3500. Every tiny bit helps - help me help her!
