"The experience we've had is love. Whenever there is a need, they call on us, and we call on them." ♥️ Wizie and Darwin have been supporting refugees in their community with the IRC for over 10 years. They help with everything from document translations to advocating for a new bus stop so kids can get to school. Watch and see how Wizie and Darwin have gone from near-total strangers to honorary grandparents, confidants and best friends to the people they’ve met—and how those people have shown up for them in return.

This #WorldRefugeeDay and beyond, we stand with refugees and all forcibly displaced people around the world. In this moment, we face a new and profound chapter of uncertainty. Resettlement policies are shifting, refugees’ lives are being upended as humanitarian programs shutter, and displacement is at an all-time high, leaving millions in limbo. At a time like this, we must ask: What would we have lost if communities hadn’t met the moment—if they hadn't given refugees the chance to build new lives and enrich the places they now call home? It is time—more than ever—to rise up with courage and determination with refugees. Join us in standing with refugees around the world and share this graphic today. (fb)
