Urgent: Refugees Need Your Help!
/
Dear Friend,
You may have heard that some federal funding impacting nonprofits has been lifted. Unfortunately, the primary source of federal government to support refugee families invited to the US remains frozen. Refugee families still need your help. Now, more than ever, your support is essential in ensuring that newly arrived families have the resources they need to thrive: weinspirit.org/donate
Ever since WWII the US government has invited certain families who have endured the most horrific atrocities in their home countries to start a new life in America. When families enroll in the US refugee program the federal government makes a promise to support them financially for a mere 6 months. They then entrust them and their arduous journey toward self sufficiency and citizenship to organizations like Inspiritus.
Inspiritus treats each opportunity to serve these families as an honor, a sacred vow and an act of patriotism. Why? Because we love America and we’re proud to help them realize their own version of our American dream. You can imagine our shock and dismay when we learned this week that our government, in a move never seen before, has reneged on these promises to our community’s newest and most vulnerable neighbors. These specially invited families are left out in the cold. This is not the American welcome that was promised.
