Donation Drive for Afghan Refugees
As a church, we desire to be generous and help meet some of the needs of our community. In order to do so, we partner with local organizations who are making a difference and serving people locally. One of the organizations we partner with is Dorcas International, who works hard to serve the needs of immigrants and refugees in our area.
As thousands of refugees from Afghanistan are resettling in the US, Dorcas is helping 50 families resettle in the greater Providence area. They have reached out to their community partners to ask for help in making this possible.
