Your Giving Creates A Refuge

For students new to this country and new to the American school system, learning can feel like a steep climb. That’s where SDRT steps in to meet each student where they are. Because when we say “refuge,” we mean a place to learn and to belong. With your gift today, we’ll continue:

• Twice-weekly tutoring for preschool through high-school students with refugee backgrounds.
• Hands-on enrichment, outings, and events to broaden horizons beyond the classroom.
• Building confidence, resilient mind-sets, and academic success for students who often begin far behind.

SDRT isn’t just a tutoring program. It’s a community. A place where families, volunteers, and students come together under the shared belief: we can succeed together. Your gift helps strengthen that community by:

• Empowering parents to understand and engage with the educational system.
• Hosting events and field trips where students experience the joy of belonging and exploration.
• Cultivating mentorship that builds bonds across backgrounds, ages, and cultures.

Hope doesn’t happen by accident. It grows when we invest in people, when we see the potential in every student, and when we walk alongside them towards their dreams. Your Giving Tuesday donation ensures that hope continues to flourish with:

• Scholarships ranging from $500-$2,500 for current and former SDRT students pursuing higher education.
• A lifelong network of support for our students — not just during their K-12 years, but beyond.
• A vision where every refugee student in our community knows: they belong, they matter, and they can succeed.
