Refugee Families in
Lackawanna County

Fleeing political turmoil in their home countries, refugee families have recently resettled in our community. Each is starting a new life here and needs to set up a home and secure clothing for our new and colder winter. Check the Angel Tree for tags detailing specific needs; shop for the item(s) and bring them back wrapped and with the tag attached by December 18th. You can also give cash donations. Checks should be made payable to First Presbyterian Church with “Refugee Gifts” in the memo line.
