Good Neighbor Settlement House, Inc

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected many nonprofit organizations that provide help to the most vulnerable ones in our community. Consider supporting them during this time. As mentioned by the World Health Organization and the Center for Disease Control, persons experiencing homelessness may be at increased risk for infection during the outbreak of COVID-19. Good Neighbor Settlement House is doing everything it can to protect the health and well-being of our clients as well as our staff. With our efforts, have come increased costs both in the form of needed supplies such as cleaning products, food and staff costs. All donations regardless of size are greatly appreciated and will help ensure the health and safety of our clients and staff.

In Brownsville, Texas - just across the US/Mexico border from the city of Matamoros - volunteers work tirelessly to feed, clothe, counsel and deliver critical humanitarian aid to asylum seekers from all over the world.

On the US side of the border, Good Neighbor Settlement House offers a refugee respite program that provides shelter and services to asylum seekers released from ICE or Border Patrol custody - free to pursue their asylum cases from within the United States.

On the Mexico side of the border, GNSH in partnership with Team Brownsville volunteers delivers food, clothing, first aid, hygiene and other essential aid to asylum seekers waiting in line to legally cross the border and request asylum. 

Your donations to this campaign will help buy critical supplies and fund services for these vulnerable populations. Join Salesforce volunteers in giving what you can to help bring some humanity to the crisis at our borders.

If you prefer to donate directly to the charity and not via this site, your donation can still count toward this campaign if you report your donations. Please contact the organizer of this campaign ([email redacted]) for more information.
