Vaca Valet: empowering small businesses and building stronger communities

A Vision for Change

At Vaca Valet, we’re driven by a bold vision: to create a revolutionary platform that provides affordable marketing tools for small business owners. Our mission is to help these businesses thrive in their local communities, with a focus on sustainability, community outreach, and supporting nonprofits that make a difference.

The mission behind Vaca Valet is deeply personal to me. Over the past 12 years, I’ve dedicated myself to understanding the challenges small businesses face and finding ways to make a lasting impact on this planet.

My journey took a pivotal turn when I visited the Bahamas three years ago. After witnessing the devastation of a catastrophic storm, I saw firsthand the resilience and power of community. Families and individuals came together to rebuild, reminding me of what truly matters—relationships, connection, and shared purpose.

The Heart of Vaca Valet

I believe small businesses are the heart of every community. In places like Summit County, Colorado, where I’m based, these businesses play a unique role. Beyond their products and services, they contribute to the sustainability and resilience of their communities.

At Vaca Valet, we’ve designed our platform to help small businesses:

Measure and showcase their efforts in sustainability.
Build a stronger online presence.
Connect with their local communities.

Building a Better Tomorrow

True success isn’t about material wealth—it’s about the relationships we build and the impact we have on others. My experiences living on a small island taught me that happiness comes from connection and shared experiences.

Through Vaca Valet, we aim to empower small businesses to grow while making a meaningful difference in their communities. Together, we can create a ripple effect that strengthens neighborhoods, inspires others, and builds sustainable futures.

JOIN US ON THE JOURNEY

Our small actions today can create big changes tomorrow. Whether it’s supporting local nonprofits or contributing to sustainability initiatives, small businesses hold the power to shape the future. At Vaca Valet, we’re here to help them shine.
