Giving Tuesday donations will go toward Reaching Riverview, our annual campaign to fund the RIC programs that welcome and empower our newest immigrant and refugee neighbors in Columbus.
Last year, we met 1,500 individuals seeking help. This year is not yet finished and we have already met 1,770 people. The need is great!
Every dollar you give will be matched until $10,000 is reached.
Even a donation of $10 per month makes an impact!
DID YOU KNOW that some employers also match donations given on Giving Tuesday? Chase Bank even TRIPLES your donation, only on Giving Tuesday.
All the staff, the interns, even some volunteers are well acquainted with Simrin who is one of the youngest neighbors, who has been coming to the RIC for personal help over several years. We have witnessed her grow into a self-assured, proactive college student who cares for her family and community. We continue to see her at Eid celebrations in her home, driving her siblings to school, and occasionally in our office, seeking guidance with college scholarships and passport applications. Simrin has accomplished so much in her short time in America!
“I moved here almost 6 years ago. RIC first helped me with my high school homework and my volunteering hours, which I needed for my graduation. I'm majoring in pre-nursing, and my dream job is to get work in a hospital.” - Simrin
