MDC Refugee Assistance Luncheon PDF Print E-mail

Saturday, January 16th
12 pm - 3 pm
Temple Emanuel

Grand Rapids, MI

The Michigan Darfur Coalition along with refugee volunteers, and the Darfur refugees invite you to Lunch on SATURDAY, JANUARY 16. This will be a great opportunity to meet members of the Michigan Darfur Coalition board of directors, the all-star volunteers that have been helping our refugees re-settle, and the refugees themselves.

Following the luncheon, there will be an informal workshop/orientation for those interested in becoming part of the expanding volunteer crew to fill in the needs of our current refugees, and to be in place for when more refugees arrive.

Temple Emanuel will be our host. Temple Emanuel is located at 1715 E Fulton St GR 49503, across from Aquinas College. A punch bowl/social hour will begin at 11:30 a.m. An exhibit table will be set-up at this time, also, with a modest supply of merchandise as well as literature from the national Save Darfur Coalition. Lunch will be served at Noon along with a short lunch-time presentation. The new volunteer session will begin after the lunch-time presentation and it will be led by our experienced volunteers.

We will be receiving a free-will offering to cover the cost of your lunch and the refugees' lunches.

PLEASE RSVP for lunch by e-mailing Charlton at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it with your name and the number of guests, no later than January 13, so we can best provide the correct amount of food.
