Keep Refugee Families Safe and Sheltered

On January 24th, a stop work order was issued that has left many newly arriving refugees without the ability to work and support their families. These refugees, who have already endured unimaginable hardships, are now at risk of eviction due to the loss of their livelihoods and the unfulfilled promises made by the U.S. government. Many are in a vulnerable position, struggling to navigate the complexities of a new country and uncertain of how to provide for their families in the face of this unexpected setback.

We are raising funds to help prevent eviction and offer essential support to these individuals during this critical time. Your donation will go directly towards paying rent, securing housing, and providing basic necessities for families who are in danger of losing their homes. Every dollar counts and will make a meaningful difference in helping these new members of our community stay safe, sheltered, and supported as they work to rebuild their lives.

Together, we can make sure that these refugees don’t face the trauma of eviction while trying to start fresh in a new country. Thank you for your generosity and support.
