Support Emiliano's Family in Crisis

Hi everyone, my name is Bri. I am helping a family of street vendors who have been greatly impacted by the immigr*tion raids in Los Angeles. They wish to remain as anonymous as possible to not bring any danger to themselves or their families.

Emiliano, 66, is the only breadwinner and worked as a flower vendor in los angeles, until the threat of immigration raids left him without a job. He is currently caring for his aunt, a seamstress, who currently isn’t able to find work due to the raids. Now, they are both left without a job. Both fear for their lives when stepping outside of their home, but now face another threat: being evicted and left with no food.

They are sweet, humble, and loving people. They came to the U.S. to seek a better life. Please help them keep a roof over their heads and continue that dream for a better life that they deserve.

Words from Emiliano and his aunt:

“Estamos muy agradecidos de cualquer ayuda que ustedes nos pueden regalar en este tiempo difícil. Ojalá que despues de esto y con la ayuda de ustedes, la communidad, podemos regresar la ayuda a ustedes y a otros que necesiten asistencia. Muchísimas gracias. Con todo nuestros corazónes estámos muy agredecidos.”

“We are both so appreciative of any sort of help during this difficult time. Once we can, we wish to give back the help we recieve from you to others in need. We appreciate the love and support from the community. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts.”

Thank you so much for your time! My goal is to help them be able to afford rent and groceries for the next few months. We don’t know how long this threat will be impacting our immigr*nt community, but we need to take care of one another as much as we can.

With love,

Emiliano
