On the evening of Saturday, September 23, 2023, more than 150 community members from across the city gathered for the International Rescue Committee (IRC) in Atlanta’s inaugural fundraising event, Dinner Together.

We're moving through extraordinary times here at the IRC in San Diego. View our full FY21 Impact Report!

Here are links to translated brochures for all IRC San Diego Services in 10 different languages.

This is a time for fresh starts, starting over and new beginnings. We here at the IRC in Missoula have been fortunate to be with so many families while they experience new beginnings and so many "firsts."

The mission of the International Rescue Committee (IRC) 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 International Rescue Committee 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.

Meet Ivan Gant, our first UHP/OIRS client. From Ukraine to Los Angeles, Ivan navigated uncertainty, language barriers, and cultural shifts to rebuild his life in a new country. Through it all, the IRC was there to provide guidance, resources, and real, transformative support. Today, Ivan is a professional actor, DJ, and event host—with big dreams of starring in leading roles and performing on major stages. His journey is a testament to resilience and determination, and urges everyone to keep moving forward. "Everything changes if you are ready to change your life."
