Help unaccompanied minors in Champaign-Urbana

Tax deductible
Unaccompanied minors travel to the United States in search of academic and career opportunities. They travel to the United States without their parents, making the adjustment to their new life a difficult and stressful experience. Take, for example, the case of Itza, a Guatemalan ten-year-old girl who doesn’t speak English. Itza crosses into the United States and reaches Champaign-Urbana without her parents. Because she is an unaccompanied minor, Itza does not have access to financial support or parental guidance. Latino Partnership can help children like Itza and provide them with the resources they need for a bright future.

We have decided to create a GoFundMe to support Latino Partnership, a non-profit organization in Champaign-Urbana, IL dedicated to defending the rights of unaccompanied minors, raising awareness for their situation, and supporting the Latino community. Thanks to your donation, Latino Partnership will be able to purchase backpacks, notebooks, and calculators, as well as winter clothes such as coats, gloves, and hats. This project aims to give financial help to unaccompanied minors. We hope that this project will provide them with much needed support during these difficult times.

Los niños no-acompañados hacen el viaje a los Estados Unidos en busca de oportunidades de estudio y de trabajo. Los niños no-acompañados sufren mucho cuando llegan a los Estados Unidos porque no tienen a nadie con quien quedarse. Podemos pensar en el caso de Itza, una niña guatemalteca de diez años que cruza a los Estados Unidos sin sus padres y llega a Champaign-Urbana sin saber hablar inglés. Por ser una menor indocumentada, Itza no cuenta con ninguna ayuda financiera ni emocional. Latino Partnership puede ayudar a niños como Itza y proveerles las cosas que necesitan para tener éxito.

Hemos decidido crear un GoFundMe para apoyar económicamente a Latino Partnership, una organización en Champaign-Urbana, IL que se dedica a defender los derechos de los niños no-acompañados, crear conciencia sobre su situación y apoyar a la comunidad latina. Gracias a su donación, Latino Partnership podrá comprar mochilas, cuadernos y calculadoras, además de ropa de invierno como chamarras, guantes y gorros. Este proyecto sirve para apoyar económicamente a los jóvenes y darles el apoyo que tanto necesitan en estos tiempos difíciles.
