COVID-19 continues to shape the lives of refugees living in Salt Lake County, leading to a staff-wide effort to gather and deliver basic necessities to families in need.

This summer, The IRC in Dallas partnered with the George W. Bush Institute to be a part of their Liberty and Leadership Forum.

In October, more than 200 newly arrived refugees received winter wear as part of the IRC in Salt Lake City’s Warm Welcome Winter Clothing Drive. 

There's nothing more special than the gift of giving. This Holiday season, give a gift that has the highest value!

Thank you, Jimbo's!
