Venezuelan American Alliance

What Venezuelan American Alliance does

Venezuelan American Alliance (VAA) is a 501(c)(4) non-profit advocacy organization incorporated in Florida on July 25, 2019, founded by a coalition of more than 40 Venezuelan Americans to provide a coordinated voice in Washington D.C. and across all 50 state legislatures on issues affecting Venezuela. The organization's mission is to raise awareness of Venezuela's political, social, and economic crisis among U.S. government officials and the American public, to advocate for legislation supporting freedom, democracy, and human rights, and to provide immigration-related resources (TPS guidance, humanitarian parole information, asylum support, voter registration) to the Venezuelan American diaspora.

VAA does not develop or sell technology products or SaaS services; its 'technology' footprint consists of a website, an email newsletter, the #SobremesaOnline podcast/video series, and an Instagram presence used to disseminate advocacy content. Its core operating activities are political advocacy, community organizing, government education (e.g., 'U.S. Government 101', 'U.S. Grants 101'), and direct diaspora support services, centered on an annual in-person #VenezuelansTakeDC event in Washington D.C. that coincides with the launch of the Venezuela Democracy Caucus.

VAA's business model is that of a donor-funded, membership-based 501(c)(4) social welfare organization with no commercial revenue streams, no disclosed fundraising totals, and no pricing model; services are provided free of charge to community members. The organization operates with 1-10 employees from a Miramar, Florida headquarters and is led by Maria Antonietta Diaz (President and Founder) and Jorge E Fernandez (Treasurer/Director). Its primary 'customers' are the U.S.-based Venezuelan American community and Venezuelan refugees and migrants seeking immigration status assistance and political engagement pathways.

Direct peers

• Human Rights Foundation: HRF is a nonpartisan 501(c)(3) that promotes democracy and human rights globally, with a strong Venezuela and Cuba portfolio — directly comparable to VAA's freedom-and-democracy advocacy mission and its diaspora-policy engagement model.
• Venezuelan American Caucus: An emerging Venezuelan-American political caucus engaged in U.S. legislative advocacy on Venezuela issues — directly comparable to VAA's diaspora-driven Washington advocacy model and frequently co-activates with VAA's #VenezuelansTakeDC initiatives.
• World Liberty Congress: A coalition of democracy and human-rights activists focused on authoritarian regimes including Venezuela — comparable in mission and operating model to VAA as a diaspora-led advocacy coalition, but with broader geographic scope.
• CLD – Center for a Free Venezuela / Casla Institute: A Venezuelan-diaspora advocacy and policy organization focused on democratic transition and human rights in Venezuela — closely comparable to VAA in mission, target community, and policy-advocacy operating model.

Broad incumbents

• Freedom House: Freedom House is a longstanding U.S.-based democracy and human-rights NGO that monitors political freedom worldwide, including Venezuela — overlapping with VAA's democracy-advocacy mandate but operating at far greater scale and global breadth.
• Amnesty International USA: Amnesty International USA is a major human-rights organization that regularly campaigns on Venezuela political prisoners and migration — comparable in human-rights advocacy function to VAA, though at significantly larger organizational scale.
• Human Rights Watch: HRW is a leading international human-rights research and advocacy organization with active Venezuela reporting — parallel to VAA in human-rights subject matter, but operates as a global research-driven NGO rather than a diaspora-led advocacy group.
• OAS – Organization of American States: The OAS is the regional intergovernmental body that has actively addressed Venezuela's democratic crisis — overlapping thematically with VAA's freedom-and-democracy mission, but as a multilateral institution rather than a diaspora nonprofit.

Others

• International Crisis Group: A think-tank-style NGO that produces policy analysis on Venezuela and other conflicts — adjacent to VAA's policy-advocacy work as a research and policy-input counterpart, though not a competing service provider.
• National Immigration Forum: A U.S. immigration policy advocacy coalition that engages on TPS, parole, and asylum issues affecting multiple diaspora communities — comparable to VAA in immigration-resource and policy-advocacy function, though serving a broader multi-origin constituency.
