A Message From Jeffrey Basch
Every family arriving here as refugees left behind the places where their memories were made. Their kitchens, their neighborhoods, their communities. As a JFS board member, I get to see what happens next: families finding homes, kids enrolling in school, parents securing jobs, and new traditions taking root right here in Washtenaw County. JFS has resettled more than 2,000 refugees in the last three years, and I've watched this community welcome them with open arms.
Your gift funds housing, food, health care, employment support, and the everyday connections that turn a new place into home. Every dollar goes directly to families rebuilding their lives.
Join my team, make a gift, or come walk with us at Burns Park on October 11. Help me give more families the chance to start making new memories.
With gratitude,
Jeff
