WELCOME ASYLUM SEEKERS!

WELCOME ASYLUM SEEKERS!

sunday, September 10th, 11-1 pm: welcome get-together for asylum seekers

Help us welcome the recent Asylum Seekers who came from NYC to Rochester, and are currently staying at the Holiday Inn on State Street. Most of them are families and from Spanish-speaking countries such as Ecuador and Venezuela.

We will host a potluck lunch in Spiritus’ Celebration Hall, as well as offer games and fellowship!

If you are interested in helping, please email Lauren Urzetta for the sign-up sheet.


Please note: All donations can be brought to the IBERO Community Resource Center at 216 Clifford Avenue Rochester, NY 14621.
