Donate to World Relief Chicago World Relief-Chicago relies on the generous contributions of its supporter’s time, prayers, and monetary donations. We invite you to be a part of this exciting work. Through your gift, it is possible for us to help refugees who arrive in Chicago with next to nothing to become established in our community. Donations are used to provide services falling into six areas: Chicago Office (to be used as most needed)
Refugee Resettlement
Education
Mental Health
Youth
Legal Services
Specific ways in which your financial gift can impact the lives of newly arrived refugees include:
A gift of $23 provides an adult with a CTA pass for public transportation allowing them to attend one week (20 hours) of English classes.
A gift of $100 provides for 8 hours of translation services into a refugee’s primary language.
A gift of $150 provides groceries for a refugee family when they first arrive in Chicago.
A gift of $150 provides one month’s worth of fuel needed to transport 30 kids per week to and from the after school program.
A gift of $250 waives half the legal fees for green card applications for a family of four.
A gift of $350 subsidizes the average cost of one month’s apartment rental assistance.
