The Center for Refugee Services relies on financial support from individuals like you to pay essential expenses like utilities and rent on a facility where classes are held as well as services and support rendered.

Without your help, we cannot provide ESL classes, diapers and maternity support, education scholarships, employment help, and other essential case management services to support resettled refugees.  This support is vital to refugees’ successful community integration.

Yes, I want to help the Center for Refugee Services by making a tax-deductible donation!

We welcome in kind donations of gently used and new items that assist our health and wellness programs. We encourage groups to choose a category for a group project. 

Donations can be brought to our office during business hours (Monday – Friday 10am to 3pm).  

We request that you do NOT leave donations at any other time as we are in a congested, well-traveled area.

We regret that unless we have a special project, we cannot take clothing.  We do not have the space or volunteer staff to successfully provide this service on an ongoing basis.

We do appreciate items in these three areas:
