Donor-Advised Funds

Our Mission

Since 2016, Hearts & Homes for Refugees has been building a growing network of neighbors, family, friends, community organizations, faith, student and civic groups. We provide opportunities for volunteers to join in supporting our refugee neighbors to empower them to rebuild their lives with hope and dignity.

As a volunteer-driven nonprofit organization, HHR has inspired, educated and equipped nearly 2,000 volunteers to support the holistic refugee resettlement of hundreds of refugees in our communities. Community Sponsors improve the long-term outcomes for refugees and change the lives of our new neighbors as well as the lives of volunteers and community partners who offer their time and resources.

Why Your Donation Matters

A donation to our organization can provide direct rental assistance and essential needs such as clothing and groceries to a refugee family in need, and help us develop robust services like our new ESOL program.  

Donations through Donor Advised Funds (DAFs) help us expand the network of volunteers and our capacity to say “Yes” to resettling more refugees who have been approved for resettlement. When starting life over in our care for up to 12 months, our new neighbors receive the basics of food and shelter. But our model goes beyond the basics. We offer support for English, a first job, mental health care, navigating the medical system, cultural orientations, community connections and more. We are the family and the network they left behind.
