Due to COVID-19, our April 30th benefit is canceled.

We're disappointed that we aren't able to gather in celebration of Chicago's global identity and refugees' accomplishments. But, RefugeeOne's work continues in this critical time.

Will you consider a gift today to help refugees who are facing uncertainty?
Your donation gives safety and stability to families impacted by COVID-19, providing emergency rent and utilities assistance, crucial communications in home languages, help navigating public benefits, and more.

If you already purchased a ticket for the event, the amount donated is now fully tax-deductible. If you'd like to receive a corrected receipt or a refund, email donations@refugeeone.org.
