As you are aware, a lot of the Afghan people became refugees and had to flee their country and a lot of them have come to the USA. Close to home at Fort Lee in Richmond, and Fort Pickett in Northern Virginia, they have been housed and offered assistance, as well as at other military bases around the country.
Recently, our association along with many churches collected blankets to help keep them warm on the upcoming cool nights. Here are a few pictures:
Thank you to everyone for helping with this mission to be the hands and feet of Jesus to our new neighbors! We delivered approximately 30 bags/boxes FULL of blankets!!
We hope to continue to serve this community and will update this page with the latest as we get information. In the meantime, please contact our office if you have any questions, mdba@mdba.org.
