Subject: The meaning of home.

Dear Andrew,

This Giving Tuesday, you can help someone have a home.

Like Maja, a Bosnian refugee who fled to Florida in the 1990s. Even though it was many years ago, she clearly remembers entering her new place.

“The place was so pretty and well-arranged. There were flowers on the table, food in the fridge, and a lamp already turned on. It felt so loving.”  – Maja

This is what we mean by welcoming newcomers with open arms. So many have fled horrific circumstances, like the conflicts in Ukraine and Afghanistan, natural disasters, and humanitarian crises. And so entering a new home prepared by loving hands truly means the world.

Today, a few donors have offered to match your gift, dollar for dollar, doubling your impact for refugees and immigrants seeking freedom and a better life.

Your automatically doubled gift will also help provide emergency assistance for newcomers, reunify families, provide clothes, shelter, transportation to families forced to flee, and more.

Today, I hope you’ll support refugees and immigrants by giving a generous gift to LIRS — especially since your donation will be doubled and will impact the families we serve.

Please donate today — whatever you can give truly helps, coupled with the GivingTuesday match.

With sincere gratitude,

Krish O’Mara Vignarajah
President & CEO

P.S. Your GivingTuesday gift can be multiplied for families who need it most.
