Support for Mari Mendez & Latino Families Facing ICE Raids

If you’ve found your way to my GoFundMe, you already know I’m raising funds for my dear friend Mari. She was unjustly arrested while simply doing what she must, attending her court hearing on the path to becoming a U.S. citizen. On her way out, she was detained illegally, despite following every necessary step.

We're raising money to cover legal fees and post bond to get her released from detention. Every dollar helps bring her one step closer to freedom and justice.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support.

Furthermore, right now, many Latino families in our community live in fear, fear of being torn apart by ICE raids, fear of not coming home to their children, spouses, grandparents, or loved ones. This fear isn’t just in the news; it’s in our homes, our neighborhoods, and our hearts.

No one should have to worry about going out to buy groceries or losing their job because of the threat of being detained unlawfully. This isn’t just unfair, it’s heartbreaking.

That’s why I’m committed to doing everything I can to support our Latino families who are struggling right now. Many cannot even afford the basic necessities, and your help could be the lifeline they desperately need.

If you can share even a dollar or two, it will make a real difference, helping families put food on the table and hold onto hope in these uncertain times.

Thank you for standing with us. Together, we can show our community they are not alone.
