Support Ricardo’s Family After Deportation

My name is Salina, and I am reaching out for support after my father, Ricardo Hernandez, was recently deported by ICE agents while working at his usual taco stand in Santa Ana. Ricardo has been in America for the past five years, working hard to provide for our family and striving to gain citizenship despite the challenges of learning English. He was the main provider for our household, and his sudden removal has left us in a very difficult position.

As a stay-at-home mother of five young children, all under the age of eight, I am struggling to make ends meet. My father’s dedication to our family was unwavering—he always put us first, often spending his last earnings to make sure we had food and shelter. Now, with him gone, I am left to care for my children alone, facing the uncertainty of how to cover our basic living expenses and the legal costs needed to fight for his return.

We are asking for help to support our family during this crisis and to cover the legal fees required to bring my father home. Any contribution will make a difference and help us get through this incredibly hard time. Thank you for reading our story and considering supporting us.
