<div>I’m raising funds for my father, who was detained by ICE on September 23, 2026, at around 8 AM while he was waiting at a bus stop. Everything happened so suddenly, and since that moment, our family has been trying to process what happened and figure out how we are going to get through this.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>My father means the world to me. He is a hardworking, loving, and genuinely happy person who has always done everything he could to support our family. The people he works with respect him deeply and have always shown him so much love, especially for the food he makes and the kindness he shares with the people around him.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>It is incredibly painful not knowing what is going to happen next. Right now, it is just me and my mom at home. My mom has health issues and barely works, and my father has always been an important source of support for our family. Without him here, we are facing a lot of uncertainty and financial stress.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are raising money to help pay for an immigration lawyer and to help our family with the financial needs that have come from this sudden situation.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div><strong>How the funds will help:</strong>
</div>
<ul>
<li>Hiring an immigration lawyer
</li>
<li>Legal and detention-related expenses
</li>
<li> Financial Needs
</li>
</ul>
<div>These are the things we need help with most urgently right now.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>I never imagined that I would have to ask people for help just to get through something like this. My father is someone I love more than I can put into words, and having him suddenly taken away from us has been one of the hardest things our family has ever faced.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>We are holding onto hope and doing everything we can for him. If you are able to donate, no matter how much, it would mean more to us than you know. And if you aren’t able to donate, simply sharing this fundraiser could make a huge difference.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Every donation, every share, and every kind message means so much to our family during this difficult time.
</div>
<div><br />
</div>
<div>Thank you for standing with us, supporting my father, and helping our family through this. From the bottom of our hearts, thank you.
</div>
