Hagamos Vaca is a grassroots nonprofit working in solidarity with immigrant families in New Kent, West Point, Hampton Roads, and surrounding areas. We show up when others don’t—filling fridges, replacing broken water heaters, getting kids glasses, covering prescriptions, and making sure no one is left behind.
Every dollar you give goes directly to meeting urgent needs in our community. We don’t have big overhead or red tape. We have neighbors helping neighbors—and you.
Right now, while we are a registered nonprofit in the Commonwealth of Virginia, we’re awaiting our IRS determination letter. That means donations are not currently tax-deductible. But the needs can’t wait—and neither can we.
If you’re ready to stand in solidarity with neighbors who need our help, we hope you’ll give today. Whether it’s $5 or $50, you’re making a difference.
