The International Rescue Committee (IRC) supports both refugees in conflict zones across the world, as well as refugees resettling in cities across the U.S. Your support helps those who have arrived in the U.S. looking to begin anew and contribute to their communities. The IRC recently announced its first-ever emergency appeal focused exclusively on aiding refugees already in the United States to support the critical services that ensure the newest Americans – most of whom are women and children – can reclaim their lives. These funds will cover anticipated funding gaps tied to the Trump Administration’s executive order banning all refugee arrivals for 120 days, and Syrian refugees indefinitely. Many refugees are in need of immediate aid on arrival and beyond—including housing, cultural orientation, health care, education, employment, and immigration services. Contributions will also support the work of IRC’s dedicated field teams who are crucial to ensuring clients are provided with a solid foundation so they can build on it and successfully integrate into American society.
