THE STORY:
This year I'm running the NYC Marathon for UnLocal!
As an undocumented immigrant and DACA recepient, I understand first hand how imporant and life changing it can be to have the support of an organization like UnLocal. Throughout the years that I remained in the shadows, it was nonprofit's like UnLocal that kept me informed and encouraged me to continue fighting for immigration reform.
Thanks to Deferred Action, I was able to receive my NYS Teaching Certificate, and I am currently in my forth year as a Mathematics teacher at the International High School at Union Square. Because I understands the struggles of being an immigrant, I strives to provide newcomers with the tools they need to exercise their rights as workers, immigrants, and residents of New York City. Thus, no best way to do than by supportive organizations like UnLocal that works to meet the unmet legal needs of immigrants in NYC by providing free or low cost immigration legal representation and community education.
So, please donate! Every single contribution will help UnLocal to continue to provide services to immigrants who really need it.
