On Wednesday, June 29, 2024, the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ in Denver hosted its annual Colorado Refugee Advocacy Day Open House. The event brought together clients, resettlement staff, and county and state legislature members to engage in discourse on some of the main challenges facing refugee and asylum-seeking populations around Colorado. 

On June 20, 2024, Denver’s Tivoli Turnhalle came alive with the powerful voices of refugees from around the world. The Colorado Refugee Speaker’s Bureau Showcase marked a celebration of resilience, courage, and hope, all in recognition of World Refugee Day.

On June 20, our community gathered at Play Faire Park for a memorable World Refugee Day celebration. The event featured an interactive mural, a mini golf fundraiser, and activities for all ages, showcasing the resilience and creativity of refugees. The mural, symbolizing hope and solidarity, will be displayed at the ArtWalk on July 11, 2024, at the Center for Contemporary Arts. The mini golf fundraiser highlighted refugee experiences while raising vital funds to support our programs. Thank you, Abilene, for your incredible support and making this day special! Together, we create a welcoming community for all.

Bob Marshall and Michael LaPointe of Biga Pizza have gone above and beyond to support new Americans in Missoula. In 2020, Biga Pizza began partnering with the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ in Missoula to employ newly arrived refugees. Michael, with over twenty years of restaurant experience, has been instrumental in this initiative, recognizing the challenges refugees face and providing them with the support needed to adapt to a new culture and work environment. This commitment has not only benefited the employees but has also enriched the entire Missoula community, showcasing the profound impact of compassion and inclusivity in business.

The mission of the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ (̽»¨¾«Ñ¡) is to help people whose lives and livelihoods are shattered by conflict and disaster to survive, recover, and gain control of their future. Founded in 1933, the ̽»¨¾«Ñ¡ is a leading, non-sectarian, non-profit organization providing emergency relief, protection, rehabilitation assistance, resettlement services, and advocacy for refugees and victims of oppression or violent conflict. Domestically, our 29 offices across the U.S. ensure new arrivals have food, shelter, and clothing, and work with refugees to help them gain self-sufficiency. The Des Moines, IA office was opened in July of 2022, serving more than 200 refugees in its first year.
