Each year, World Refugee Day is celebrated around the globe: uplifting refugee voices, highlighting their contributions, and raising advocacy needs. This year, the IRC Atlanta hosted our second World Refugee Day Trivia Night welcoming volunteers, corporate partners, staff, and community supporters to share a bite and put their knowledge to the test.

Mark your calendars! December 3, 2024, is Giving Tuesday. At the IRC in Virginia, we eagerly look forward to participating in this global movement of generosity. The annual campaign presents an opportunity for individuals worldwide to use the power of giving to make a difference in their local community.
