Afghanistan Evacuees Resettlement Support Operation

GHAC is partnering with Maryland resettlement organizations to give support to the Afghanistan evacuees who will be temporarily and semi-permanently located in our area. This operation will be at least a 6 month project as we provide weekly personal supplies and food, as well as long-term settlement needs.

We invite you to join us in this community and humanitarian outreach by donating items on the donation list (see below) or to volunteer in various capacities (coordinate volunteers across several churches and organizations, manage donation storage center, deliver food and supplies to resettled families, etc.) and be an embodiment of God's grace to people in need.
