Giving Tuesday is finally here–have you made your Tax Deductible Gift to Women Watch Afrika? Make a Gift and Support Women Watch Afrika Today!
Women Watch Afrika as a grassroots organization has always been on the frontline supporting immigrants, refugees, and asylees in the state of Georgia.
We have served the community with much needed support: providing rental assistance to 350 families, monthly communal food and COVID-19 support to over 600 families, and diapers to 75 nursing mothers in need. Our Communal Support event last week was a success: WWA provided meals, household items, non-perishable food items, diapers, etc. to over 160 members of the community.
We provide services to immigrants, refugees, and asylees from over 23 African nations, as well as immigrants from Jamaica, Haiti, Burma, Afghanistan, Vietnam, to name a few. And with the increasing toll of the current landscape and continuing health scares, we have expanded our efforts to assist all community members (citizens and non-citizens, immigrants and non-immigrants alike) with the monthly communal food and COVID-19 support and diapers support.
We have served over 900 families this year and are on track to meet and exceed that number in the next year. In addition to providing them financial and tangible assistance, we also provide educational, crisis and mental/emotional health counseling, legal services, and empowerment services.
Many of the refugees, asylees, and immigrants we serve arrive to the United States with nothing but the clothes on their backs. Most refugees and asylees flee for their lives and leave everything they own behind.
As you may know, the individuals that are brought into the country by the United States as refugees are required to pay back the cost of the airplane flights. The need to find a stable job, the rising costs of everything from rent to food, to gas, to medication, etc., all force many into distress.
Be a part of our work to build a stronger, safer, healthier, educated, happier, and empowered community.
Our goal is to raise $25,000. Whether it is $200, $500, $1000, or more, every bit counts. Every bit you can give is needed and much appreciated. Give a gift today and consider becoming a monthly donor.
Your gift will be used to continue to provide our monthly Communal Food support, COVID-19 assistance, Diaper support, and other much needed support to a community that is low-income and underserved.
Join our movement to provide for, empower, educate, and elevate the immigrant and refugee community and the community at large. Make a Gift to Women Watch Afrika, Inc., and become a part of WWA’s mission to make a difference in the lives of many every day. Every gift counts. Make a gift today!
Share this with your family and friends and ask them to join the effort and consider becoming monthly donors. They can help in strengthening our communities and make the world a better place—one family at a time. Remember—every bit counts.
We are ever Thankful for Your continued support.
With grateful appreciation,
– Women Watch Afrika
