Mission Viejo Organization Seeking Volunteers For Home For Refugees

Press release from the City of Mission Viejo:

April 6, 2021

Community members are invited to two virtual meetings designed to educate the public about volunteering with Home for Refugees.

Based in Mission Viejo, Home for Refugees is hosting the informational virtual meetings from noon to 1:30 pm on April 6 and from 7 to 8:30 pm on April 8.

Home for Refugees invites faith and community groups and individuals to engage in the work of refugee resettlement to address the global refugee crisis through Community Sponsorship teams. Community Sponsorship is recognized by the U.S. Refugee Resettlement Program. It is a program where community members work with a newly arrived refugee to help the individual receive a warm welcome and get a good start during his or her first year in a new community.

To RSVP for a virtual event, RSVP to Andrea at a.castillo@hfrusa.org.
