Love Your Neighbor Donations

Thanks to your generous donations, the Social Concerns Standing Committee was able to make 10 special outreach donations. We focused on immigration and issues refugees face because the need is so great right now with war, poverty, violence, and climate change forcing more and more people to leave their homes and seek a better life. The organizations selected (see below) provide a wide variety of services. We are pleased that, thanks to your generosity, we can assist them in their vital work.

Sincerely,
Maria Duran, Coordinator
Social Concerns Standing Committee
