💪 How You Can Help: There are countless ways to support our Reception and Placement Program, which plays a vital role in assisting refugees as they navigate their new lives in the U.S. Our program ensures that families receive the critical support they need, including housing, job placement, and cultural orientation. Your contributions can take many forms: • Donations: Every dollar helps provide essential resources like welcome kits, medical care, and educational support for refugee families. For instance, a single donation can help cover the costs of housing, food, and necessary services for those in transition. • Volunteering: Your time and skills can have a profound impact. Whether you’re helping families move into their new homes, guiding children through school enrollment, or connecting refugees with local resources, every act of kindness matters. • Advocacy: Spread the word about our mission and help raise awareness about the challenges refugees face. Your voice can inspire others to get involved and support our efforts. 🌟 Ready to make a difference?

If you drive by this unassuming warehouse building on Edgewater Drive, you would never expect that inside is a non-profit called Voice of the Tabernacle MultiService Center (VTMC) that has housed more than 240 migrants since the beginning of the pandemic. Contrary to the violently anti-immigrant rhetoric of the evangelical right-wing movement, Boston’s faith-based organizations have taken the lead when it comes to addressing the most urgent and pressing needs of thousands of migrants and refugees. Churches, faith-based organizations, and para-religous organizations are not letting up on their efforts to make sure that new arrivals are successfully integrated into American society. VTMC currently covers the costs of 10 apartments that provide housing to Haitian migrant and refugee youth and unaccompanied youth adults. Many of these youth are teenage boys and young men who have the hardest time finding housing. Made possible by the incredible generosity of Imago Dei Foundation, VTMC was able to get a $25,000 matching grant! Every gift, up to $25,000, will be matched dollar for dollar. DONATE $10, $25, or $50 to the #SafeHavenForHaitianYouth campaign to ensure that youth that move to this country have a safe place to live and a social support system. Share with your network and help us raise $25,000 by 12/31/24! #SafeHavenForHaitianYouth DONATE HERE>> https://gofund.me/382bbc15 Massachusetts Council Of Churches Episcopal City Mission Jewish Community Relations Council of Greater Boston MASSACHUSETTS COMMUNITIES ACTION NETWORK INC Send Relief

The person sitting next to you in class, or the kid down the block in your neighborhood. You just do whatever you can to help in any way that you can."-Robyn Rihanna Fenty Rihanna's words resonate deeply, emphasizing the simplicity and impact of humanitarianism: "All you need to do is help one person, expecting nothing in return.
