Make a Financial Donation
Your financial support helps refugees and asylum seekers – individuals and families — fully integrate into our community.
We help refugees and asylum seekers find housing, enroll their kids in school, learn English, find employment, and so much more. In time, the adults become employed, paying their own way and fully contributing to society. However, there are some costs associated with getting each family to that point.
We also provide some legal services for asylum seekers.
Costs fall into two categories:
- Start-up living expenses for the family
- Staffing costs to operate the refugee and asylum seeker program
To make an online credit card donation
- Click the Donate button. This takes you to the Catholic Community Services (CCS) donation page. CCS is the nonprofit organization under which the RRC operates.
- Choose how often you’d like to give under “Giving Frequency” — one time, monthly, or annual.
- Choose “Restricted: RISP” from the dropdown menu under “Gift Designation.” RISP is the Refugee and Immigrant Services Program within CCS, which RRC supports with volunteers.
Would you consider making a monthly donation?
Regular, recurring donations make budgeting a lot easier, and it’s easy for you too! Sign up once, and it’s done. Even giving a small amount each month helps, and especially if many people give regularly. And of course you can stop or change your donation at any time. Follow the instructions above and choose “Monthly” under “Giving Frequency.”
