Homes for Refugee Children & Families
In December of 2016, Team Humanity and Charity United joined forces on a refugee aid project.
We gave refugee families with children the opportunity to move out of cold, dirty, inhuman places, into warm and safe rooms in a community home in Greece. They could remain there while their asylum applications were processed.
The home contained bedrooms, a common kitchen and dining area, bathrooms, a school room, and room for children to play. It was a warm, friendly, welcoming, and safe environment. We housed children, pregnant women, single mothers, fathers, and the elderly.
