Support Fatima & Her Family in Crisis

Donation protected
Fatima is a devoted mother and a cherished friend who has always been there for her community. On December 23rd, her world was turned upside down when her partner was illegally detained by ICE and has been held ever since, leaving her to care for their two young children on her own. The sudden loss of her partner’s support has placed an enormous financial and emotional burden on Fatima, who is now struggling to keep her family together while navigating an uncertain future.

Despite these challenges, Fatima continues to give back to our community by helping our children at school and offering her kindness wherever she can. Now, she needs our support more than ever. The funds raised will go directly toward covering childcare, essential living costs, and urgent legal expenses, giving Fatima and her children a chance to stay together and in their existing home during this incredibly difficult time.

With everything going on in the world, it is easy to feel helpless and hopeless. Supporting Fatima, her children, and her partner is a real way to make a difference for a local, hard-working family that has been torn apart. Though we might not change the entire system, we can change the lives of this family. Together we can make a big difference - one donation of support at a time.
