I’m raising funds for my dad and my uncle after they were arrested by ICE. This was completely unexpected, and our family is now facing urgent legal costs at a time when everything has been turned upside down. They were on the way to work when they were stopped and taken in without questions.

My dad is the one who provides for his family, and my uncle also provides for his. Their absence has created immediate hardship for all of us. I had to leave my kids back home in North Carolina so I could come help my dad, and right now I am the only one in the family with legal status and the only one able to help both my dad and my uncle. My mother is not working at the moment, which has made this even harder on our family.

The money raised will go toward lawyer expenses and for things my dad and uncle need while they are in the detention center. These legal costs are urgent, and any support will help us fight for them and make sure they have what they need right now.

If you can donate, please know that any amount would mean so much to our family during this painful and overwhelming time. If you are not able to give, sharing this fundraiser would also help us more than you know. Thank you for standing with my dad and uncle.

Estoy recaudando fondos para mi papá y mi tío después de que fueron arrestados por ICE. Esto fue completamente inesperado, y nuestra familia ahora enfrenta costos legales urgentes en un momento en que todo se ha puesto de cabeza. Iban de camino al trabajo cuando los detuvieron y se los llevaron sin hacer preguntas.

Mi papá es quien mantiene a su familia, y mi tío también mantiene a la suya. Su ausencia ha creado una dificultad inmediata para todos nosotros. Tuve que dejar a mis hijos en casa, en Carolina del Norte, para venir a ayudar a mi papá, y en este momento soy la única persona en la familia con estatus legal y la única que puede ayudar tanto a mi papá como a mi tío. Mi mamá no está trabajando en este momento, y eso ha hecho que esta situación sea aún más difícil para nuestra familia.

El dinero recaudado se usará para los gastos de abogados y para las cosas que mi papá y mi tío necesitan mientras están en el centro de detención. Estos costos legales son urgentes, y cualquier apoyo nos ayudará a luchar por ellos y asegurarnos de que tengan lo que necesitan en este momento.

Si puede donar, por favor sepa que cualquier cantidad significaría muchísimo para nuestra familia durante este momento tan doloroso y abrumador. Si no puede donar, compartir esta recaudación también nos ayudaría más de lo que imagina. Gracias por apoyar a mi papá y a mi tío.
