Story

Being a refugee or asylum seeker means reaching a foreign land after fleeing one’s home in fear. It means leaving everything and everyone behind.

At DAR, we want to make sure that those men, women, and children who come to us not as a choice, but to save their lives, have the warm welcome they deserve.

We offer them a safe and friendly environment where they can get the support they need to rebuild their life in our country. We introduce them to our system and community as we would a dear friend who just moved from abroad. We respect their culture and heritage, and cherish the richness they bring into our lives.

DAR also works to support other refugee charities around the world. Therefore 50% of the total we raise is being donated to the Red Cross in Ukraine.
