Fresh Change
A Fresh Change
When immigrants are released from Customs and Border Protection custody, it is often with nothing but the ill-fitting government-issued clothes on their backs.
In partnership with Border Servant Corps, the Global Refuge network welcomes them with dignity, offering a place to stay, a warm meal, and, with your help, a fresh change of clothes. The new Fresh Change program offers an opportunity to welcome immigrants with a bag of new clothing. Using our toolkit, volunteers can pack as many bags as they’d like and send them to our neighbors at the border. You can even host a Fresh Change packing party!
How It Works
- Download the Fresh Change Digital Toolkit, which includes additional instructions and free printables.
- Let Global Refuge know how many bags you plan to assemble.
- Wait for a confirmation email from Global Refuge with a mailing address.
- Fill your bags per the instructions in the toolkit.
- Send the bags to newly arrived immigrants!
No time to pack bags? No problem!
You can purchase items online and send them straight to the people who need them.
