Emergency Response Campaign
Right now, many of the families with whom we walk are facing a level of uncertainty we have not seen in our lifetime. In response, we are launching our Emergency Response & Community Protection Initiative, with a goal of raising $50,000 to ensure we can act quickly when families need us most. Please consider making a one time or monthly gift to make a difference in their lives. All donations starting now until we have reached our goal will go towards this campaign.
As Margaret Mead said, “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world.” Your tax-deductible donation is how you join that group, helping newcomer families write a new chapter in their lives and enriching our shared community.
