The Virgin Mary of Charity or la Virgen de la Caridad del Cobre is an important figure to the Cuban exile community, who continue to look to her for guidance and protection since fleeing the island nation, and in North Hudson her faithful find their home at Casa de la Caridad, 3333 Hudson Ave., Union City. This is the official local capilla or chapel to the patron mother of Cuba.

“Our holy mission is to continue devotion to the Virgin Mother, support the Hispanic community in a sacred and religious life, as well as realize pastoral activities that instill the spiritual teachings of the Apostolic Roman Catholic Church,” said Ana Teresa Serrano, president and director of the Cofradia Arquidiosesana del la Virgen de la Caridad del Cobre, the archdiocesan fellowship of the Virgin Mary of Charity.
