My name is Ana, and I am raising funds for my mother Santana and my two sisters, Melanie (13) and Natalie (19). Our lives changed dramatically when our father was deported, leaving us to navigate daily life without his support. My mother has not been able to work since his departure, and we are struggling to cover basic needs like groceries, rent, and my sister Natalie's college expenses. Every day, my family faces the emotional trauma of losing our father and the uncertainty that comes with it.

My father was a hardworking man who came to this country fleeing violence, hoping to give us a better life. He never had any criminal background—his only “crime” was seeking safety for his family. His sudden deportation has left my mother and sisters in a vulnerable position, and I am doing everything I can to help them stay afloat. Natalie is working hard to continue her college education, but the costs of tuition and living expenses are overwhelming without our father’s support.

Your support will help us cover essential living costs, groceries, and school expenses for my sisters. Every donation will make a real difference in helping my family get through this difficult time and work toward a more stable future. Thank you for reading our story and considering a contribution to help us rebuild.
