Help us build a transformative new migrant shelter.
ABBA Migrant Shelter in Celaya, Mexico helps 12,000 people a year. They provide food, housing, medical care, and legal assistance to people migrating from all around the world and are the only shelter in the Americas which specifically assists people who have lost limbs on their journey to reach the US border. ABBA is now creating the Centro Cultural de Derechos Humanos, (Cultural Center for Human Rights) a transformational new shelter to provide long-term housing to asylum seekers, families, amputees, and LGBTQ+ people.
We need your help to bring this important and timely project to life.
