When I think of all the refugees now empowered to cross the bridge to self-reliance with your help, I am filled with awe at what we have achieved together. When we attend an awards ceremony to cheer on a student, or join the excitement when a refugee whom we have coached, proudly show us a citizenship certificate, we know that these are celebrations your caring has helped bring about. And when we see hope rekindle in worried refugees’ eyes as staff help them identify ways around barriers to reaching their dreams, you have been a part of that transformation.
This will be my final report to you as our project is coming to a close. My term as a Board Member has ended and it is time for a new, much younger member to be found. Be assured that this project, you, our loyal supporters, and GlobalGiving, which has taught us so much, are all held close to my heart. When the time is right we hope to renew this partnership. Until then please keep in touch with the refugees served by Episcopal Refugee Network of San Diego at www.refugee-net.org.
