Afghan Tea: A Family-Friendly Fundraiser

Join us on Saturday, January 20 from 2:30-4 p.m. at First Presbyterian Church (704 Whitney Ave) for a casual afternoon of tea and community in support of an Afghan family seeking asylum in the United States. Due to the family's status, they are unable to receive support from government agencies or local nonprofits that support refugees. Instead, a circle of support has emerged from local volunteers, friends, and religious communities to support this family of five.

Our hope for this fundraiser is to raise enough funds to help the A. Family secure independent and safe housing to support their life in New Haven. Join our circle of support for the A. Family while enjoying an afternoon of tea and sweets, with conversation and activities for all ages.

RSVP is welcome but not required. Contact Associate Rector Rev. Heidi Thorsen (hthorsen@trinitynewhaven.org).
