My name is Garcia, and I’m reaching out for support during one of the most challenging times in my life. Recently, my son’s mom was deported, and now it’s just my son and me trying to navigate each day on our own. As a single father, I’m doing everything I can to stay strong and provide for my child, but the sudden change has made things incredibly difficult for us both.

The funds from this fundraiser will help us in several important ways. First, I need to pay for a babysitter every day so my son is cared for while I work. I also want to send some support to my son’s mom so she can get back on her feet after everything she’s been through. On top of that, I’ve spent most of my savings on attorneys, which has left me struggling to pay rent and keep food on the table. Every bit of help will go directly toward making sure my son is safe, fed, and supported during this tough time.

I don’t know if any of you have been in this type of situation before, but as a single man and single father, it’s my first time facing something like this. If you’ve ever been here, you know how much it means to have a community behind you. Any support you can offer will mean the world to me and my son. I truly believe there’s more happiness in giving, and your kindness will bring joy not just to us, but to you as well.
