Through a partnership with CORE, the IRC was able to employ refugees in free COVID-19 testing centers throughout LA. One such refugee from, Narbeh, shares his experience and the pride he feels every day helping people: “It really makes my heart feel better. Just the fact that I can help people makes me happy.” 

In addition to donating to the IRC directly, here are ways to support the IRC through our corporate partners.

An asylum seeker from El Salvador shares his experience migrating to the US, and how the IRC's Unaccompanied Children Program has helped him navigate the difficulties of resettling in a new city. “I think it’s great that an organization like IRC exists to support young people who are migrants like me.”

This September, the New Roots Community Farm’s (NRCF) community members came together to rebuild the farm. This project consisted of transplanting new plants, weeding, and installing sturdier plant beds. The New York Restoration Project also joined the NRCF in these efforts to execute the rebuild. The IRC in NY sat with Sheryll Durrant, the Food and Agriculture Coordinator at IRC in NY, to learn about the impact of this rebuild and the vision of the NRCF as a whole.
