Afghan Refugee Relief

Afghan Refugee Relief

When Afghanistan collapsed last year, 75,000 Afghan refugees were evacuated to the United States. Maryland received over 2000 refugees which were placed throughout the state. Two hundred of the refugees, including forty families, were placed in two Anne Arundel County hotels. I was one of these visitors and, along with several others, felt an urgent need to jump in to help provide food, clothing, guidance and, most importantly, welcoming love and compassion.

 We know that our beloved founder, Linda Greenburg, would have fully engaged our all volunteer organization in this humanitarian process...thus we will be focused on this for at least the next several months. One way we can help is by funding some of the items that are essential that the refugees are not currently able to provide for themselves... independent housing cost, tools needed to navigate day to day life such as laptops, phones, transportation, out of pocket medical expenses, ESL training etc.

 I am pleased to say our efforts have advanced and are now operated under Heart for Refugees, and Maryland 301c(3) non-profit organization. If you are able to help, your tax-deductible contributions are greatly needed at this time, please click here to visit the website. In addition to this, there are other important ways you might be able to help....in kind donations (furniture and other household items, autos with useful life remaining, other) and time to assist in certain related tasks.

Be sure to follow refugee updates and related info ....
