Help Create a Community Resource Hub for Immigrant Families
Donation protected
Imagine leaving behind everything you know, your home, your community, your language in pursuit of safety and opportunity. Then imagine arriving in a place where you're overwhelmed, unseen, and without the support you need.
This is the daily experience of many immigrant families in New York City. They’ve escaped hardship only to face confusing systems, unfamiliar rules, and closed doors.
They don’t need charity, they need real support. For years, a small office in Brooklyn has quietly provided it.
An Office That Offered More Than Services
That small office has become a trusted source of guidance. It’s where the working class, community members come to start a petition to bring their families to the US or legally adjust their status, where non English speaking elders prepare for US Naturalization and their citizenship interviews. Where abuse survivors find safe referrals. Where young people help their parents navigate forms and find answers. And where small business dreams begin to grow.
But this space has reached its limit. Families wait in a cramped tiny waiting area, built late November to cure the growing wait lines or outside under the trees. Conversations happen in corners. Some walking away without the help they came for.
Expanding to East Flatbush
We’ve found a new storefront in East Flatbush. It’s in the heart of a community that needs accessible help now more than ever. But it needs repairs, updated floors, restrooms, safety upgrades and setup with the right tools, tech, and furnishings.
With your support, we can transform it not only into an office the community can continue to rely on to cure its many urgent, non legal and immediate document preparation needs to stay compliant but it will also be a space that will act as a true community hub.
What Your Gift Makes Possible
- A safe and renovated space
- Private rooms for confidential guidance
- Classrooms equipped for ESL, Civic, History and Citizenship courses
- Paid internships for youth as translators and community leaders
- Materials in multiple languages so no one is left behind (even if it's to point them to the right resources available to them)
We aim to serve more than 500 families a year with privacy, dignity, and care.
Your Support Will Go Toward
- $25 = A seat for someone beginning their journey
- $100 = Flyers and guides printed in five languages
- $500 = A full week of classes, mentorship, or support sessions
- $1,000+ = Safety and structural repairs to make the space usable
Every donation helps make a lasting difference.
Real Lives. Real Stories.
Maria arrived with rejected forms and nowhere else to go. We sat down with her, helped her responded to the rejection letter, corrected everything, and helped her reapply. Weeks later, she returned with tears in her eyes and an approval letter in hand.
Ahmed, a father of three, had a vision for a food cart but no idea how to begin. With our help, he launched his business and now serves the community that supported him.
July 7th we host our first interns through one of our community partners who assist low income high schoolers with paid interships through the city. These teens will assist in leading workshops for members of their community who speaks their languages.
These aren’t just stories. They’re proof that this work matters.
Why We Can’t Wait
Demand has grown. Families who enter into the country legally are under pressure from rising costs, housing issues caused by displacement, and uncertainty about their status. And still, they come hopeful and determined.
But right now, we have to turn many away. Not because we want to, but because we don’t have room.
This new space will change that.
It means fewer people walking away unheard. Fewer children carrying adult burdens. More families getting the support they’ve been searching for.
It’s Not Just a Building
It’s a message. When someone walks in, they’re asking, “Do I matter?”
And your support answers, “Yes, you do.”
It says:
- “You’re seen.”
- “You’re not alone.”
- “You have the right to safety and opportunity.”
From a Volunteer’s Perspective
“I once helped a father trying to understand a form. He kept apologizing. His daughter, maybe 10, squeezed his hand and said, ‘My dad is smart. He just needs help.’ She was right. That’s all he needed, someone who believed in him.”
Community Support in Action
We’re a grassroots effort. A Social Enterprise. Social entrepreneurs are quiet little heroes who spot a real need in their community and choose to solve it using their own ideas and money often without big investors and usually charge less so more people can benefit.
No large grants. No celebrity endorsements.
Just people like you who believe that dignity, safety, and support are for everyone. They are people who use innovative solutions to address social, cultural, or environmental challenges while building sustainable ventures that create lasting impact.
