LFS Cultural Thanksgiving Bags Liberian-Thanksgiving Thank you CLC!
As you know, we committed to filling 50 Cultural Thanksgiving Bags for the LFS Refugee program. Today more than 20 million refugees, asylum seekers, and internally displaced person are living with a very uncertain future, LFS Refugee Programs are dedicated to helping these vulnerable individuals and families rebuild their lives by equipping them to achieve self-sufficiency within their first year in the United States and fostering integration into their new communities. All 50 bags have been spoken for! Please have your completed bags to the church by Nov. 13th. If you didn’t get a chance to grab a bag, you can still donate items. The LFS Refugee program is also in need of rice cookers which also need to be delivered by 11/13.
