Brenna Daldorph, Lawrence junior, listens to Lester during a visit to Le Comodoro in Nogales, Sonora, Mexico. Lester left his wife and four young children in the U.S. to visit his dying father in Mexico. He also left his apple-picking job. Daldorph said he showed her a paycheck and said he was getting paid almost nothing for his work. During his trip through the desert to get back to his family, he was deserted by the guide he had hired with $1,200 to lead him through the desert. He wandered for five days, eventually reaching a road where he tried to hitchhike. Eventually he was picked up by the Border Patrol and deported back to Mexico, away from his wife and kids.

Juan, center, whose name has been changed to protect his identity, rests with the other members of his group at a first aid tent at a No More Deaths campsite. The group was found lost, with very little food and no drinkable water, near one of the numerous migrant trails that wind through the desert. Migrants making the crossing often have insufficient equipment and are unable to carry enough water to make it all the way through the desert, which causes many to die of exposure.

A small angel statue, part of a shrine made of objects found on the trail, prays at the No More Deaths campsite. No More Deaths keeps a running tally of confirmed deaths in the desert, which is now in the 180s for this fiscal year, but estimates that approximately one out of 10 bodies is found and counted because of the size of the region. "You grieve for the dying," said John Heid, a regular volunteer for No More Deaths. "And then you fight like hell for the living."

Daldorph reflects in front of a shrine that was built in remembrance of a 14-year-old girl from El Salvador named Josseline Janiletha Hernandez Quinteros, who died after getting separated from her brother while trying to join members of her family in the U.S. No More Deaths volunteers found her body. The volunteers relayed her story to the silent group of students. "That's a death that you know a lot about what the person was feeling right before they died and that's a huge weight," Daldorph says, pausing afterward. "That's a lot," she says finally. "I had wanted to understand her experience, and suddenly I was just overwhelmed by it."
