Subject: Refugee Resettlement Advocates Meeting Invitation



Hello,



I have a volunteer opportunity that I think some of you would be interested in, and would like to extend an invitation to you.



On Feb. 21st, from 2-3pm, we will be hosting a meeting for volunteers interested in helping with our advocacy efforts. We represent clients from all over the world, and from many cultures/backgrounds. We need your student's help to advocate for these people, who often have no voice in the communities they reside in.



Some of the ways your students will get involved:

·  Attending meetings with elected officials and candidates

·  Helping to organize cultural awareness events to educate the public

·  Get involved with their communities to shed light on the refugee cause

Below is an easily copy/pastable invitation that I would love if you could share with your students/colleagues. Please try and emphasize that they should fill out the RSVP form at the bottom so I can plan for their attendance. Of course we would love to have you attend as well! Please feel free to reach out with any questions or if there's any ideas that you may have to make this a worthwhile experience for your students.



Thank you!
