ORGANIZATION: No One Left Behind

We have broken our donations team into mulitple captains, and each captain is in charge of a different household item:

Bed and Bedding Captain,Kitchen Supplies Captain, Furniture Captain, Incidental Goods Captain

Our donations captains will utilize social media, strategic business relationships, and other marketing tools to source home furnishings and other donations for newly arrived interpreters. He or she will coordinate needs of the clients, the acquisition, inventory and delivery of donations to our storage facility, and coordinate movers to deliver furnishings and donations to newly arrived families.

No One Left Behind is the only veteran-run and veteran focused organization serving combat interpreters and combat support personnel who were forced to leave their homes in Iraq and Afghanistan due to being threatened by the Islamic State/the Taliban for working for the US military. These refugees, who risked their lives and those of their families for our troops, arrive in the US with few funds and no household goods. Our mission is to provide them with the support to start a successful life in the US.

About No One Left Behind

Location:

P.O. Box 3641, Merrifield, VA 22116, US

Mission Statement

No One Left Behind helps Afghan and Iraqi translators gain their U.S. Special Immigration Visas and ensures that they are properly resettled in America. When our Afghan and Iraqi allies resettle in the US, they usually come with nothing more than the clothes on their back and whatever they can fit into one suitcase. We feel that given their profound service to our nation's military while at war, these interpreters deserve better than years of waiting on seldom delivered visas and almost no support in resettling in America.

Description

We help with immigration services to interpreters and translators who are being denied visas due to the bureaucratic red tape. We provide furnished apartments, modest financial support to help cover the weeks it can take before their social service benefits (food, medical, etc.) begin, and employment placement assistance. We also pair up newly arrived refugees with other Iraqis and Afghans who have successfully immigrated to the US -- to help smooth the transition.
