Collection Drive for Afghan Refugees

Rhode Island is welcoming Afghan families who have fled the Taliban–including many who are relocating to North Kingstown. Homes, goods and services, mentors, funds, and volunteer hours are all needed to help these families make a smooth transition.

On Saturday, Dec. 18 there’s an all-day collection drive at NK’s Cold Spring Community Center (36 Beach Street). Sign up to help HERE.

Members of Westminster will be making donations and volunteering at the event. Join with a friend, or email Daisy at dgbassen@gmail.com or Amy Crawford at amycfd26@gmail.com to partner with someone from the congregation

To drop off donations before the event, please leave them in the front entry of the church, marked for Refugees. They will be delivered on the 18th. Current office hours are Mondays and Fridays 9 am to 11 am.
