The families you have the opportunity to serve have undergone unimaginable circumstances—they have left their homes and everything familiar to them due to threatening conditions, and they’ve sought refuge in our country. Through this Pathway you can come alongside refugee families and support them as they adjust to their new lives here in Memphis.

• Gain English as a Second Language (ESL) experience as you help refugees learn English! You’ll meet with students one on one and help them with conversational English.

Sorting Donations, Apartment Setup, or Airport Arrival (One-Time Commitments)

• These one-time commitments are great ways to serve if you have a busy schedule. Each opportunity is different, but common ways to serve include sorting donations for refugees’ first homes, furnishing incoming refugees’ houses, and being part of a welcoming crew that picks up refugees at the airport and takes them to their new home.
