Basic Needs Fund
Support for Times of Emergency
Everyone deserves the right to food, water, shelter and medical care. For some of our clients, an unexpected life event can jeopardize these basic needs. Your donation provides direct financial support to refugees and immigrants in crisis.
A job loss, a house fire or an unexpected medical bill would be a setback to anyone. Many of our clients don’t have savings or are ineligible for public benefits — so any of these setbacks could be catastrophic.
The Basic Needs Fund acts as a safety net, offering a one-time grant to vulnerable clients. During an emergency, your support helps refugees and immigrants stay afloat.
