Support refugees/asylum-seekers
Donation protected
The Interfaith Welcome Coalition is a San Antonio based network of faith communities, organizations, and individuals working together with a common interest in helping refugees and asylum seekers in our community.
We in San Antonio have been overwhelmed recently by the wave of migrants arriving without warning or any preparations or assistance from the state or federal government.
The IWC supports these refugees fleeing violence and persecution in their home countries. The most vulnerable refugees include, among others, women at risk, survivors of torture, and unaccompanied minors.
Karnes and Dilley family detention centers are both located just south of San Antonio. These facilities are operated more like internment camps than anything. These camps are incapable of providing families with their basic needs, and efforts are underway to try to close both facilities.
