Keep Julio Guerrero with His Loved Ones

Help Julio Guerrero Fight Deportation and Reunite with His Family
On May 30th 2025, Julio Guerrero—our beloved stepdad, husband, and friend—was suddenly arrested by ICE officers as he was heading to work. Without warning or explanation, they took him away in front of his stepson, who was threatened with arrest as well just for witnessing what happened. Before they drove off, an officer chillingly told Julio, "Don’t worry, we’re coming back for your family too."
Julio has lived in the United States for over 20 years. He is a hard-working, tax-paying member of our community who shows up every day for his family and loved ones. He married the love of his life last year after 10 years of being together and has been a devoted stepfather to her children—loving them as if they were his own, and now a grandpa to a beautiful baby girl. Though he is not a U.S. citizen, we are. And now we are doing everything we can to keep our family together.
We’re raising funds to cover urgent legal fees, commissary expenses (so he can eat better, stay clean, and take care of his health while in detention), and—if it comes to it—support him if he is unjustly deported to Peru, a country he hasn't called home in decades.
Julio is more than his immigration status. He is a kind, humble man who deserves a chance to fight for his future here, with his family. Every donation, no matter the amount, brings us one step closer to giving him that chance.
Please consider donating and sharing this page. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for standing with us and with Julio.
