I Run With Refugees

We love the Proverbs 31 Woman and chose her example to represent our team, partly to remind us about what motivated her in all that she did. She wasn't trying to be perfect. She was living her life out of a desire to honour and serve the Lord. And what pleased the Lord was caring for people who are vulnerable, like the widow, orphans and immigrants - those adjusting to a new home country. We serve a God of hope, and that's what we want to do by walking for this cause. To  give hope to those who call Adam House their transition home. You can make a donation too by clicking on the link at the top of this page. Thank you!

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.
