Last fiscal year, 852 refugees including 243 who fled Afghanistan during the humanitarian crisis and 129 Ukrainians fleeing war, were welcomed and resettled by our Refugee & Immigration Services program.
The critical work that we do could not be possible without our dedicated community of donors, volunteers and supporters. If you would like to help positively impact the lives of our neighbors from around the world, below are some ways you can contribute.
- Donate: Monetary donations help fund the areas of greatest need for our refugee clients. Your donation will ensure that refugees receive the support they need to thrive.
