Chicago was recently rated the nation's #1 welcoming city for refugees and immigrants.

That's thanks to friends
like you!
​
Join us to celebrate Chicago's global identity, learn how refugees overcome the unimaginable, and donate to help more refugees make a home here.

Picture
Enjoy international bites that now represent Chicago as much as the countries they originate from - and have some Chicago classics as well!
Hear refugees' stories, learn about RefugeeOne through interactive stations, play games, and more.
All money raised supports programs that welcome refugees and help them flourish in their new home.
