It is with deep sadness that I request your financial support in continuing the work of serving refugees and immigrants at Community Refugee and Immigration Services (CRIS.) I have been working at CRIS for four years and have never worked at another agency that cares so deeply for the people they serve. So many individuals in our community rely on our services to develop long-term sustainable lives in the U.S. With changes in administration and new losses of funding, as a non-profit organization, our agency relies on the support of community members. 

I want to help CRIS raise $100,000 in 100 days to establish the Enduring Welcome Fund and continue serving our community for many years to come. 

Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for your support and contribution to the work myself and so many others are passionate about.
