Families who have fled violence, persecution and crisis are continuing to rebuild their lives in communities across the United States. Yet for many refugees and other immigrants, growing uncertainty around immigration policies, access to resources and long-term stability has created new challenges during an already vulnerable season.
Even in the midst of uncertainty, we believe in more.
Together with compassionate neighbors, churches and volunteers, we are walking alongside refugee and immigrant families as they pursue safety, stability and the opportunity to thrive.
From emergency support and housing assistance to legal services, employment programs and community connection, your partnership helps families move forward with dignity and hope.
Give today to help refugee and immigrant families in our community find support, belonging and the opportunity to flourish.

Together, we can make Triad one of the most welcoming communities on the planet. Will you join us?
Seeing what World Relief was doing, I thought — thank God something is happening. There is still goodness in the world. World Relief is changing lives.
