The goal of this Charity Challenge is to support Afghan Refugees. For this purpose we are collecting donations for Refugee Services of Texas (recipient of 60 % of the donations) and Humanity First USA (recipient of 40 % of the donations). This initiative has been organized by the Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Association (AMYA). AMYA association is 100% volunteer-run. This ensures that 100% of the donations will benefit charities.
About the Refugee Services of Texas:
"Refugee Services of Texas is a social-service agency committed to serving refugees, asylees, SIVs, parolees, survivors of human trafficking, and other displaced persons with the principles of human compassion and dignity. There are six offices across Texas, including the Fort Worth office. We are excited to be partnering with Ahmadiyya Muslim Youth Association as we look to empower our clients as they become self-sufficient here in the DFW area. Your donations will be directly impacting the lives of individual families we serve here in the Fort Worth office everyday. Some of the many ways your contributions can assist RST are as follows: helping a family buy food for their household, supplying their children with school supplies or uniforms, or even helping us buy items for the family's home as we prepare for their arrival. We are so appreciative of your support and desire to assist RST as we seek to resettle refugees and other displaced persons and their families." -Hope Goldman, Community Engagement Coordinator of the RST Fort Worth Service Center.
