Mission Statement
As a witness to God’s love for all people, we stand with and advocate for migrants and refugees, transforming communities through ministries of service and justice.
About This Cause
With more than 100 million people around the world displaced from their homes, the need for essential services to immigrants, refugees, and asylum seekers is needed more than ever. As part of our mission to build a bigger table to welcome and serve newcomers, we made a decision to allow our organization to meet this historic moment. Starting this year, Lutheran Immigration and Refuge Service adopted a new name -- Global Refuge. For 85 years, we have provided the resources, guidance, and community to help forge a way forward for New Americans. We’re committed to helping people reimagine the possibilities while providing a soft place to land. Our faith-based identity has been integral to our work of welcome and it remains unchanged. We are the largest faith-based national nonprofit exclusively dedicated to helping restore a sense of home to immigrants, asylum seekers, and refugees. Since 1939, we’ve built a legacy of compassion by walking alongside more than 750,000 new neighbors as they rebuild their lives in the United States. We successfully serve New Americans through many programs, such as Refugee Resettlement, Therapeutic Foster Care, and Mental Health Services. Additionally, we expanded Global Refuge's geographic reach through new offices and enhanced partnerships, including our new field offices in San Antonio, TX; Fargo, ND; and a new effort serving repatriated families in Guatemala. Global Refuge and its partners continue answering the call to sponsor and support immigrants and refugees with open doors, open arms, and open hearts.
