Refugees in Syracuse

St. Lawrence's Euphrates Institute is holding its third annual Refugee Benefit Gala on November 8th. Refugee crises are an ongoing problem with 68.5 million people displaced from their homes around the world. All proceeds from our event will go to RISE, an organization in Syracuse, NY. RISE's mission is to "advocate and promote self-sufficiency through employment, education, social support and economic independence for members of the refugee and immigrant communities in Onondaga County, NY." Your donation will help RISE in its mission to aid refugees in their transition into the United States and make them self-sufficient members of our communities.
