I'm 1 who cares | Do 1 Thing

Overview

No one chooses to be a refugee. There are over 10 million refugees who have lost everything. 1 refugee without hope is too many.

Refugees across the world have faced incredibly difficult dilemmas and have shown great courage and resilience in escaping from terrible situations and rebuilding their lives.

Can you imagine how it would feel to have to flee your home to find safety in another country?  While no one chooses to become a refugee, you do have a choice to help – Even in difficult economic times, it doesn’t cost a single cent to show interest in others, learn, and share your new knowledge and interest.

Is there 1 thing you could do to show your support for a refugee or asylum seeker?
