We are reaching out to invite you to support three Ukrainian families who have become a beloved part of our community.

Many of you have already met them and supported their arrival. They are parents and children who fled war in search of safety and stability, and who have worked tirelessly to build a new life here. In the years since their arrival, these families have secured jobs, pay their own rent, and contribute meaningfully to their neighborhoods every day.

Their children attend our schools, participate in our churches and sports teams, and have woven themselves into the life of our community. They have shown extraordinary resilience, determination, and kindness.

Yet despite their stability and contributions, their immigration status remains uncertain. Recent policy changes have required them to reapply for Temporary Protected Status and work authorization. Each application must be filed individually (including for children and infants) and each comes with

significant fees. While these families are self-sufficient, they simply cannot absorb the sudden, repeated financial burden of these mandatory filings.

This is why we are coming together, and why we hope you will join us.

Every contribution, no matter the size, truly makes a difference.

Your continued support is more than financial assistance, it is an act of welcome, hope, and solidarity. It lets these families know that they are not facing these challenges alone and that this community stands with them.

Once received, these funds will be immediately transferred to each family depending on their needed application fees. Thank you for your compassion, your presence, and your willingness to lift up neighbors who need us.
