Fundraiser for Yender’s Legal Fees: $6,000 NEEDED FOR YOUNG FATHER & ASYLUM SEEKER INCARCERATED AT COOK COUNTY JAIL

His family misses and needs him terribly.
Donations are also being accepted for Yender via Venmo (@comedor-comunitario-chicago), and we will update this page if the total of donations from this page plus the Venmo get near the total of $6,000 that is our goal to be able to pay the attorney’s fees in full and relieve Yender’s family of this huge burden.
