A Gift of Friendship
It is often said that it takes a village to raise a child. One of the most enjoyable aspects of SHC English classes is watching moms and their children make new friends, laugh and exchange recipes. Our volunteers too have many stories to share about their new family friends. SHC works everyday to create welcoming communities for refugee and immigrant moms– networks of peers, trusted teachers, tutors, advocates and mentors who will look out for the well-being of newly arrived families and their children.
This Mother’s Day, consider making a gift of friendship to benefit refugee and immigrant moms who live in our community. Moms who rely on SHC for practical support such as:
- Joining our family-friendly English language classes.
- Getting matched to a volunteer tutor who will help break the isolation of a new country.
- Navigating children's school registration.
- Sorting out issues with food stamps.
- Getting a medical appointment.
Give a gift of friendship to refugee moms today.
