Christmas for refugees

thought i'd post about this on here, the International Rescue Committee (IRC) brings refugees from various war-torn countries to the U.S. and they have an office here in Dallas. they've brought several families from Sudan and other countries in Africa that i've personally met and they are all nice people.

well the IRC takes donations during the holidays to try to provide some holiday cheer for these families.. they call it "adopt a family"

basically if you want to get gift cards for stores like Target or anything that would help with everyday items you can take them up to the IRC office and they will distribute them amongst the families. you can also donate cash on the website if you want. www.theIRC.org/Dallas

here is their info

IRC Dallas
7515 Greenville Avenue
Suite 603
Dallas, TX 75231
United States
Tel: (214) 461-9781

it's over in that bank building over there... i do this every year and it's a good thing to do. these families come over here with nothing and we help them get jobs and places to live and then help them get acclimated to the U.S.

How about the refugees we already have here that are American citizens?
There is a ton of charity here in the native US that so many forget about.

that makes no sense el-nino

these refugees are here in the U.S. and on their way to becoming U.S. citizens... that's what the IRC does.

stop trying to be confrontational
