Justice For Lizandro & Diego
Nineteen-year-old Lizandro Claros Saravia is a standout soccer player from Gaithersburg, Maryland. I played with him for the past five years and in that time we have become very close friends. He recently received a scholarship to play college soccer in North Carolina. His brother, Diego, was planning to move with Lizandro to support him throughout college. On August 2nd, Lizandro and Diego were deported to El Salvador by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Lizandro and Diego were separated from their family, and their American dream was broken. The brothers bettered our community through their strong work ethic, honesty, kindness, and uplifting spirits. Please contribute to help Lizandro and Diego continue their education. Help them have the life they deserve. Every dollar counts!
