Daysha Delvalle,12, was among the girls reaching out to Bieber.
"We are here to support Justin Bieber and to ask him to support us," said Delvalle.
Activist Emma Lozano joined the kids in asking that Justin Bieber put all of the attention he gets to good use supporting their cause.
"These are things that are happening. We know that Justin Bieber now is someone who understands I would say in the flesh what it is like to be the target of a nation's asking for his deportations."
They are calling on the President to put an end to all deportations.
