One local soccer team is raising money to support a fellow teammate.

The Empire High School boy's soccer team raised money for Hernando Enriquez by hosting a car wash on Saturday.

Hernando's father is being charged with killing his wife and daughter and attempting to kill him. 

Miles Doser is one of Hernandez's teammates. He says he came up with the idea to help out shortly after the murder of his teammates' mother and sister. 

"We came up with multiple ideas, we though yard sale, bake sale, that kind of thing and car wash seemed the most practical and we had done it before and it went really really well."

Now, Enriquez says he is trying to move forward with his life, while facing the realoty that he'll see his mother and sister again. 

"You have to enjoy the people that you love while they're there, while you have them, enjoy them to their fullest because you just don't know how long it'll last."

If you weren't able to make the car wash, but you still want to donate to Nando, you can donate money through Tucson Baptist Church by clicking here.
