Felipe Matos, Gaby Pacheco, Carlos Roa, and Juan Rodriguez were brought to the United States by their families when they were young. This is the only country they have known as home. They have the same hopes and dreams as other young people, and have worked hard to excel in school and contribute to their communities. But because of their immigration status, they've spent their childhoods in fear and hiding, unable to achieve their full potential.

The “dream walkers” have walked nearly 1,000 miles, braving rain and snow, blistered feet, and vicious anti-immigrant sentiment. During their journey, nearly 25,000 people have signed on to support their call for leaders to fix our failed immigration system. Now they’ve set a goal of walking into Washington D.C. with more than 50,000 people standing with them. Can you help them reach their goal?
Please pledge your support for the walkers, share this powerful video, and ask your friends and family to do the same.
