Border Angels pledges to end Family Separation one family at a time! 

This week Border Angels will kick off our Familias Reunidas campaign. This campaign seeks to raise awareness and support those being held in local ICE detention centers due to their lack of funds to post bond. Border Angels is proud to contribute $50,000 to its Familias Reunidas campaign which will post bond for at least ten people in detention and allow them to rejoin their families. But, we need your help to get more people out of the Otay Detention Center.

This Thanksgiving, as we give thanks for our blessings, consider that there are families separated simply because they are unable to pay their immigration bond. Please donate to our bond fund. 

100% of your donation will go toward getting someone out of detention and reunited with their families. 

An immigration bond is the amount of money set by the Department of Homeland Security or an immigration judge as a condition to release a person from detention for an immigration court hearing at a later date. To set bond, a judge has to determine that the person is not a threat to the public and that they will be appearing at their immigration court hearings. Unfortunately, our immigration system allows for immigration judges to issue bonds in the minimum amount of $1500 and often well over $20,000 in a very inconsistent and arbitrary manner. For our immigrant families, that means that although an immigration judge has determined they qualify for a bond, they are nevertheless locked in detention until their families are able to raise the bond fund. There are highly predatory bond companies that require high initial payments with high interest and require that the person posting bond is a US citizen or legal permanent resident, and therefore, are unavailable to some immigrant families. 

On December 21, Border Angels will host a dinner for these families to celebrate their reunification  and remind us of the dignity of those seeking a better future for their families. 

Love has no borders!

Everyday a mom spends in detention is a day that their children go without her hugs and affection. Everyday that the head of household  is in detention is another day that the family has to wonder how they will pay their rent and put bread on the table.
