Mission Statement
Harnessing the power of community to provide refuge to refugees.
Description
In August 2021, in response to the evacuation of 80,000 refugees from Afghanistan, Elizabeth Davis-Edwards, a long time advocate for refugees, quit her job as a marketing executive and formed WelcomeNST to engage communities to help resettle refugee families. More broadly, she dreamed of pioneering a community-powered model for refugee resettlement. In the months that followed, WelcomeNST engaged over 3000 American families from around the U.S. to form Neighborhood Support Teams (NSTs) to welcome 700 refugees to the U.S. Today, WelcomeNST enables everyday Americans to offer refuge to refugee families from Ukraine, Venezuela, Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and around the world, proving once again that, when crisis hits, Americans will step up and meet the moment.
