Why Donating is Important

When you donate to OM1 Foundation, you are supporting real families, real children, and real moments of crisis — not just programs on paper.

The images you see here are not staged. They are moments from our daily work: delivering food to families who are struggling to make ends meet, providing groceries to children whose parents have been detained, and showing up at doorsteps to make sure no family is left alone during hard times.

Your donations help fund essential services like:

• Emergency food and basic necessities for families in crisis
• Transportation for children to get to school, medical appointments, and court-related obligations
• Support for families affected by detention and sudden separations
• Translation and interpretation for immigration appointments with ICE, USCIS, and EOIR
• Community education so families know their rights and how to protect themselves

Our flyers reflect the urgent realities our community faces — ICE activity, court deadlines, immigration interviews, and families who don’t understand what is happening or where to go for help. OM1 exists to step into those moments with guidance, compassion, and action.

Unlike large organizations, OM1 works directly in neighborhoods. We meet families at their homes. We answer late-night calls. We deliver food, provide rides, explain legal processes, and help parents keep their children safe and supported while they fight for their future.

Your donation does more than fund services — it restores dignity, stability, and hope. It helps a child get to school. It helps a parent attend a critical appointment. It helps a family breathe when everything feels like it is falling apart.

Every dollar stays in the community and is used where it is needed most — quickly, personally, and with deep cultural understanding.

At OM1, we believe that no child should be left without support and no family should face crisis alone. When you give, you become part of that promise.

Together, we turn compassion into action — and action into lasting change.
