Helping Hands Committee Refugee Resettlement
Helping Hands Committee Refugee Resettlement
Description
Last year the whole world watched as tens of thousands of Afghans were evacuated from their homeland. Many of us wanted to help. On the weekend of March 5th, the Junior League of Central Westchester’s Helping Hands Committee has the opportunity to welcome two families to Westchester County by providing them with furniture and other necessities. We are working with Hearts & Homes for Refugees, an apolitical organization dedicated to resettling refugee families and building more welcoming communities.
Please help us by making a monetary donation, providing necessities, or contributing your time. You can donate via the JLCW website or through Venmo using the @JLCWest handle and adding a ‘Helping Hands’ memo so the money goes directly toward helping refugees. You can also purchase items through the Amazon Custom Gift List.
DEADLINE FOR ALL DONATIONS IS FRIDAY, MARCH 4TH!
WE WILL NEED MORE VOLUNTEERS TO MAKE THIS PROJECT A SUCCESS! If you or anyone you know would like to get involved, please complete this form and we will be in touch: https://forms.gle/
A LIST OF HOUSEHOLD ITEMS NEEDED IS INCLUDED IN THE FORM. PLEASE LET US KNOW ASAP IF YOU WOULD LIKE TO DONATE.
