Vanguard Landing

Together, we’re building a place where everyone belongs.

Vanguard Landing is a one-of-a-kind intentional community being built right here in Virginia Beach for adults with intellectual and developmental disabilities. Our mission is to provide a beautiful, inclusive neighborhood where residents can live, work, and thrive surrounded by friendship, purpose, and opportunity.

This Give Local 757, we’re coming together for 24 hours of generosity to help our campus expand to have its next most important buildings!  2026 is when we are welcoming our first 125 residents to their new community and we are so excited! 

Your gift will directly support:

🏗️ The start of our Enterprise Building, which will create meaningful on-site jobs for residents through small businesses like our bakery, gift shop, and café. We're raising $200,000 on Give Local 757 day to go take our Campaign fund over $1 million. This Million will go directly to this new Building. 

Every dollar moves us closer to opening this building! 

Join us on May 5, 2026, for this 24-hour day of giving — and help make history by being part of the first inclusive community of its kind in Hampton Roads!

💙 Give. Share. Inspire. Together, we land somewhere extraordinary.
