CWS: Dadaab Refugee Camp Re-cap and Information Session

When: November 13th, 2017 @ 5:30pm at James Street Mennonite Church, Lancaster, Pa

Local CWS-Lancaster staff member, Omar visited the world's 2nd largest refugee camp, Dadaab, located in Kenya, Africa in June of 2017. Omar traveled to Dadaab-- a place he formally called home-- and delivered school supplies purchased through local funds raised at a screening of documentary film, Warehoused.

Now, Omar is back in Lancaster and has a story to share.

As the world faces an increasingly urgent humanitarian and refugee crisis, the US continues to challenge the last option of hope-- resettlement to a third country-- for most of the world's refugees, including those living in Dadaab.

Please join us on November 13th from 5:30pm-7pm at James Street Mennonite Church, Lancaster, Pa, for a re-cap of Omar's experience, but also for an information session on what you can do to stand up for refugees from all over the world.

Registration is FREE, but required for this event.

In Solidarity,
