In this photo, I am with my friend and neighbor, Axel, who came to this country from El Salvador with his mother, cousin, and aunt. Axel and his cousin are in kindergarten while his mother and aunt attend English classes at the Center For New Americans. Your contribution will not only support needed services but is also an affirmative act to welcome those seeking refuge in our country like my grandmother did many years ago and as Axel's family is doing today. Thank you so much for any contribution you are able to make.
