The Women's Journey Gift Catalog

For any special occasion--birthdays, anniversaries, holidays, graduations--RFS invites choose a meaningful gift for a loved one and help refugee women and their families in metro-Atlanta take meaningful steps on the journey to self-sufficiency.

Forced from her home country, a refugee woman starts a journey that few of us can truly imagine. With only those family members she could gather--and rarely anything more, a refugee woman is a survivor. She has overcome the traumas of war, of refugee camps, of loss, and she is now fighting for a better life her family. She becomes our neighbor, a member of our community, and she is building a new, safe life for her family....one footstep at a time.

Click on any of the Women's Journey gifts below and find out how your gift will provide refugee women and their families with the resources they need to become self-sufficient. Prices reflect the cost to RFS of providing services, which are always free to our clients. Your gift allows us to expand our reach and our services.
