Our mission is to help ease the resettlement process for refugees coming to Houston by mobilizing invested, caring volunteers, and fostering hope amidst crisis. We offer hope through our three programs:
1. Starting Essentials: Donated Welcome Kits and volunteer Move-In Teams ensure refugees receive the essentials needed to begin again in their new homes.
2. Friendship: Our Welcome Teams honor refugees with the gift of friendship and connect them with critical resources as they navigate their first months in Houston.
3. Community Education: Through training, and special events, the Houston community is educated on refugees, resettlement, and how to get involved.
