Goal
More than 23 million refugees around the world are fleeing conflict and seeking a new home where they can be safe. For over a decade, PRERNA has been helping refugees rebuild their lives in the U.S. We provide services of all kinds from securing safe housing to enrolling children in schools and finding jobs for adults.
This year, we are serving nearly 100 refugees, empowering whole families to survive and thrive in the Bay Area. But we need to do more. Federal funding to refugees and resettlement agencies has declined and we need your help to scale up and continue providing quality services to more families. Refugees are like us. They want a chance to find work, get an education and build a better life for themselves and their children.
