I Run With Refugees

Hi everybody!!!!

This year I will be walking with my family team and others from Adam House to Booth House, our newest home to host refugees, and raise funds for Adam House. 

 

So many people come to Canada because they are displaced of war, corruption and natural disasters. Many find their first home in Adam House. It is a safe place and a caring community of Christ followers – which is really cool!

 

Please support Adam House by donating generously! Our fundraising goal this year is  40000.- 

 

If you have further questions or want to join my fundraising team  call me: 647 500 1433 or email: M.Gommel@AdamHouse.org

Description

Where would you go if you had nothing and you knew no one?

Having nothing and knowing no one is often just the beginning of the barriers new refugees face. Often times there is a language barrier. Refugee claimants are dealing with numerous issues-trauma that was experienced in their home country and on their journey to Canada, and often living with the anguish of leaving family behind.

Adam House provides refugee claimants with clean and safe living accommodations. The staff at Adam House provide assistance and advice with immigration procedures, primarily to residents and former residents. They provide referrals to legal services, medical assistance, and community resources. However, Adam House is much more than shelter or the services they provide. Adam House is home. A place where residents find friendship and support-from staff and each other.

Every dollar raised enables Adam House to continue welcoming refugees.
