Then, spend some time... helping us help those in need.Our experience shows that over 90% of refugee children who have legal representation are granted asylum status...while those who don't are usually denied. We partner with non-profit law firms and attorneys offering pro-bono and "low-bono" services to ensure our kids receive fair and competent representation during their court hearings.
Our refugee kids fled their homes to escape deadly violence, often enduring a long and perilous journey to get here. But resettling in a new country and learning a different language can be a difficult and lonely process as well. We give our kids a sense of warmth and belonging by organizing social activities, providing playtime, tutoring, and most importantly a chance to get acclimated to a new life.
We are here to provide kids a healing embrace...
