As the daughter of Cuban immigrants, I've witnessed firsthand the challenges of building a life in a new country. My family's journey wasn't just about crossing borders—it was about survival, resilience, and hope.
I know what it's like to struggle. I've experienced the gut-wrenching uncertainty of housing and food insecurity. Those moments when you're not sure where your next meal will come from or if you'll have a safe place to sleep. Those experiences aren't just statistics—they're real, painful memories that shaped who I am today.
Now, I'm in a position to give back. The Florida Justice Institute represents everything I wish I had when my family was fighting to survive. They're the advocates I needed—the team that stands up for those who can't always stand up for themselves.
Supporting FJI isn't just a donation. It's a lifeline for families like the one I grew up in. It's a promise that no one has to face systemic challenges alone. It's about breaking cycles of poverty, ensuring dignity, and creating real pathways to opportunity.
Having often felt alone and having to find my own way, I am now committed to supporting organizations that provide a lifeline for those who need it most and have nowhere else to turn.
