International Rescue Committee (IRC)

Support the Winter Clothing Drive

As the weather turns cold, refugees in need of warm winter clothing turn to the IRC in Baltimore’s Resettlement Shop for free coats, hats, boots, and other items.  The IRC ensures that refugees have basic necessities—beds, linens, kitchen table and chairs, cooking utensils, and hygiene products—but we rely solely on donations to go beyond the basics to help recently arrived refugee families.
