Thank you for your care for our refugee neighbors!
Refugees arrive to Oregon with few possessions and have to quickly build their lives again. Restart kits are filled with essential household items and are received by newly arriving families and individuals. It’s a first step in saying, “You are not alone. We are for you. You are welcome here.” We invite you to view the Restart Kits List here.
In order to meet the needs of newly arriving refugee families, we're aiming to partner with 8 communities each month to gather restart kits.
- Select a month below to gather 10 or more restart kits. Host a restart kit collection event with your faith community, business, or school, or join with family and friends to gather these kits.
- We'll contact you with further details and answer any questions you have. As your restart kits collection gets closer, we'll set up a time for you to drop off the kits at our Tigard Warehouse.
- For any questions before scheduling, please email us at restartkits@refugeecare.org.
Thank you for helping our new neighbors rebuild their lives. We are grateful for your support.
