In partnership with the City of Los Angeles, the Dodgers have committed $1 million toward direct financial assistance for families of immigrants impacted by recent events in the region. Additional community efforts to be announced in the coming days.
I can only imagine these home losses feel like a death. As an outsider, you can’t really say “I know how you feel,” because you probably don’t.
I suppose you can only say, “I’m here.” And really be there. And listen. And be ready to help.
The sense of shock is palpable.
Fernando was an inspiration to Mexican and Latino communities everywhere and the heartbeat of an entire city. Our hearts are with the Valenzuela family, the Dodgers organization and everyone who knew and loved “El Toro” 💙
