Forming a Circle of Care is a kind and rewarding way to support the arriving Ukrainian Refugees arriving in Western New York this year!
What is a Circle of Care? A Circle of Care can be a faith based organization, community organization, or a group of friends and family who come together to support a newly arrived refugee family. Volunteers will help their assigned family in a variety of ways, including collecting household goods and monetary donations, taking the family on community outings, helping children with homework, helping the parents prep for employment and enroll the kids in school, helping the family learn the public transportation system and learn English, and so much more!
