| Every year, USCCB/MRS and the network of more than 100 diocesan resettlement agencies guide thousands of refugees to new and safer lives through resettlement in the United States. However, millions of refugees around the world continue to emerge in the wake of war, persecution, and repression. USCCB/MRS stands up for the rights of people whose home country offers them no true safety or opportunity – and for people whose situations force them to migrate. | "Thank you for giving me the opportunity to help other refugees to come to the U.S. I thank you from all my heart for making it possible for me to be here and find my home and my country, my freedom and my dignity and a better life for my child. - Passing on Hope Donor |

Through the USCCB/MRS Passing On Hope – Former Refugees Helping New Refugees program, individuals who have already been resettled in the United States are able to help refugees who still spend their lives in despair and fear amidst the miserable conditions of a refugee camp.
The donations made by these former refugees support USCCB/MRS’ work to pass on hope for a new life of peace and freedom to refugees who have been forced to flee from their homes and countries. |
