How can you participate? 
Donate – Refugees and immigrants have been some of the hardest hit by COVID-19. Many have lost their jobs and with each day we learn of new needs and challenges facing our friends in the refugee community. The lasting economic impact of COVID-19 will disproportionately impact Georgia’s refugee and immigrant community for months to come. 100% of the funds raised will support New American Pathways’ COVID-19 response.
