Immigration is not a modern issue or a political trend — it is the story of this country. It is woven into our families, our communities, and our future.

Because inclusion isn’t optional — it’s foundational.

✨ This Giving Tuesday, help us keep inclusion alive and thriving in Central Pennsylvania. ✨

AIRE’s work is powered entirely by compassion — people showing up for one another, creating safe spaces, feeding families, celebrating diversity, and making sure no one feels alone. Every meal we serve, every festival we host, every resource we provide is possible because of supporters like you.

If AIRE has touched your life, inspired you, or given you a sense of belonging, we invite you to give today.
No amount is too small. Every dollar helps us uplift our neighbors and strengthen the heartbeat of our community.

💛 Donate • Share • Show up
Together, we create a region where everyone is included, respected, and valued.

Make your Giving Tuesday gift today and help us keep the AIRE moving.

What an incredible day!
Thank you to every volunteer and contributor who made this possible — we had so much food! 🦃💛

Because of your generosity, we were able to feed over fifty families, and still had enough left to donate to Community Resource Connections for their overnight soup kitchen in Berwick.

Our community showed up with so much heart today. Thank you, truly. 🥰
