Dear Family and Friends,

I am writing to share an urgent update regarding Gloria Zamorano-Dominguez. Gloria, a loving mother and grandmother who has lived in the USA for over 30 years, was unexpectedly detained by ICE following a minor traffic violation in late February 2026.

She leaves behind a large, devoted family, including two minor children, four adult children, and many grandchildren who are eager for her return. Gloria is known for her sense of humor, her vibrant spirit, and her incredible work ethic. At the time of her detention, she had been working nearly 12-hour shifts for the same employer for the past eight years.

As a single parent for most of her life, Gloria worked tirelessly to ensure her children could pursue their dreams. Her influence is evident in her children’s success: Steve Puga is a Purdue Engineering graduate; Jennifer Hayes is a certified dental assistant; Saul Puga Jr. is studying HVAC at Ivy Tech; and Jonathan Puga is a skilled blue-collar professional.

Our family has been working hard to cover the mounting costs for legal representation and court fees. However, as court dates continue to arise, our resources are becoming limited. We are asking for your help to secure the legal defense Gloria needs to return home to her family.

If you are able to contribute, any donation toward her legal fund would be deeply appreciated. Thank you for your support and for keeping Gloria in your thoughts.

Estimados familiares y amigos:

Les escribo para compartir una actualización urgente con respecto a Gloria Zamorano-Dominguez. Gloria, una madre y abuela amorosa que ha residido en los Estados Unidos por más de 30 años, fue detenida inesperadamente por ICE a finales de febrero de 2026, tras cometer una infracción de tráfico menor.

Deja atrás a una familia numerosa y devota, que incluye a dos hijos menores de edad, cuatro hijos adultos y muchos nietos que esperan con ansias su regreso. Gloria es conocida por su sentido del humor, su espíritu vibrante y su increíble ética de trabajo. En el momento de su detención, llevaba ocho años trabajando turnos de casi 12 horas para el mismo empleador.

Como madre soltera durante la mayor parte de su vida, Gloria trabajó incansablemente para asegurar que sus hijos pudieran perseguir sus sueños. Su influencia es evidente en el éxito de sus hijos: Steve Puga es graduado en Ingeniería por la Universidad de Purdue; Jennifer Hayes es asistente dental certificada; Saul Puga Jr. estudia sistemas HVAC en Ivy Tech; y Jonathan Puga es un profesional calificado en oficios técnicos.

Nuestra familia ha estado trabajando arduamente para cubrir los costos crecientes de la representación legal y las tasas judiciales. Sin embargo, a medida que surgen nuevas fechas para las audiencias, nuestros recursos se están volviendo limitados. Les pedimos su ayuda para asegurar la defensa legal que Gloria necesita para regresar a casa con su familia.

Si les es posible contribuir, cualquier donación destinada a su fondo legal será profundamente agradecida. Gracias por su apoyo y por tener a Gloria presente en sus pensamientos.
