I Run With Refugees
This year I will be walking with my Peace Community from Booth House to Adam House and raise funds to support refugee claimants in Toronto
So many refugees found their first home in Adam House. We are a safe place and a caring community of Christ followers for them – which is really cool!
Please support Adam House by donating generously! My team fundraising goal this year is 10,000.00 $ and our overall Adam House Goal is 70,000.00 $.
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.
