Immigrant Trails

immigrant trailVACOLAO will initiate a silent protest, Rastros De Inmigrantes, every Friday starting March 25, 2016 through April 15, 2016 from 10:00 am to 12:00pm. This silent protest is focused on the upcoming hearing for DAPA in the Supreme Court, United States vs. Texas. 

Your collaborations are crucial and together we can make a change!

Our Plan:

The silent protest will be based on collecting at least 200 pair of old shoes, and along with an US flag attached to each shoe. The old shoes will symbolize the harsh trail Immigrants walk through towards the American Dream.  We will be making a trail towards the Supreme Court every Friday starting March 25, 2016 until the hearing date.  We strongly encourage your donations or collaboration for this cause.

How you can help?

  1. Collect as many shoes possible, which represent or remind you of your journey coming to the US.  (tennis shoes, boots sneakers, etc.)
  2. When you have gathered as many shoes possible please contact Edgar Aranda at Phone: (703-772-1555) email: [email protected] or Kathleen Ochoa email: [email protected] in order to pick up your shoes.
  3. Another option will be delivering the shoes at the following location 6066 Leesburg Pike, Falls Church VA 22041
  4. Must have your shoes by March 17, 2016 immigrant trail 2
