Iskashitaa Refugee Network is very grateful for two local foundations whose contributions will help us grow this year.
We would
like to thank the Long Realty Cares Foundation
for its support of our harvesting program. This support will enable us to
continue our harvesting program throughout the summer months during which time
we will harvest garlic, pomegranates, figs and Calamondin limes.
We would
also like to thank the Jewish Community Foundation
of Southern Arizona and the William and Doris Rubin Endowment Fund for naming
Iskashitaa Refugee Network a recipient for the 2013-2014 grant cycle.
Their support will allow us to hire a harvesting coordinator in the fall to
lead our gleaning efforts just in time for the apple, citrus and pumpkin harvesting
seasons.
Foundations
like these make our work possible. We are extremely grateful. Thank
you so very much! In the languages of our refugee friends: murakoze,
dhanyabaad, mahad sanid, shukran, asante sana, and muchas gracias!
