We would like to work with you to do something powerful: provide a home for one of our newly arrived families. We are looking for groups of people who want to help us make a house into a home!
Della Lamb has been formally resettling refugees in Kansas City since 2014, but we’ve been providing services to KC’s refugee population for decades! This is the perfect opportunity for multi-generational service. Kids can help carry small items, youth and young adults can help move and older adults can help to prepare, unpack and decorate the home.
