Hello Everyone,
Happy New Year! We are thrilled that we are just over the halfway mark of meeting our goal and we hope that you will consider supporting our Emergency Support Fund in 2010.
We ended 2009 on a great note through our 2009 Annual Appeal, where we raised enough money to send gift cards to nearly 50 Iraqi families to help them with winter clothing purchases. In addition, we were able to increase our Emergency Support Fund to help with visa costs for our Iraqi allies and emergency payments for those that are in dire need here in the United States.
We applaud the State Department's announcement on January 25th that they will be increasing the grant given to assisting refugees during their initial 30-90 days, which will help our Iraqi allies start their new life here in the U.S. http://www.state.gov/r/pa/prs/ps/2010/01/135800.htm
