Donating to Welcome Refugees
Contribute to the efforts!
Refugees often flee their homes at a moment’s notice. They arrive at our airport with few belongings, a difficult past, and earnest hope for the future. Welcome kits provide the basic household items they need for their new start in a place of safety.
Of course, financial donations are always appreciated and another good way to support our efforts. You can contribute by using the form on the side of this page or visiting the donate page on this website and selecting “Ginzburg Memorial Fund” from our list of funds.
