America's Story Continues
For years, immigrants, refugees, newcomers, and their descendants have helped shape the story of the United States. They have built communities, strengthened churches, started businesses, served their neighbors, and contributed to the growth of this nation.
As America celebrates its th anniversary, The Welcome Network invites you to honor that legacy by helping welcome the next generation of newcomers. Our goal is simple:
250 Welcomers × $250 = $62,500.
Together, we can continue creating pathways to belonging for immigrant and refugee families throughout our region.

Honor an Immigrant
Many of us are here because someone came before us. When making your gift, we invite you to honor:
-
An ancestor
-
A parent or grandparent
-
A newcomer friend
-
A refugee family
-
Someone whose journey helped shape your story
You may also submit a photo, a short story, and/or a dedication message. Selected submissions may be featured throughout the year as part of the 250 Welcomers campaign.

Stories of Welcome
The story of America is still being written. Throughout the year we will share stories from: Positive Stories Project, Welcome Homes, Refugee Resettlement, Volunteer Hosts, Legal Services Clients, Community Partners, etc. These stories remind us that welcoming newcomers is not only part of our history—it is part of our future.


*250 Welcomers is a year-long campaign of The Welcome Network celebrating America's 250th anniversary through welcome, belonging, and community.
