For the Nations DC is a nonprofit ministry serving English language learners and their children

Classes start in 3 weeks! While back-to-school season is exciting, the reality for our refugee and immigrant neighbors is that learning English takes time.

So does navigating a new culture and connecting to a new community—which can feel isolating and discouraging.

Your new neighbors need ongoing opportunities to learn English, build friendships, and hear about the Gospel. That's why monthly giving is powerful—it provides the steady, year-round support they need.

Become a monthly partner to provide ongoing support to families who are rebuilding their lives.

Grateful for this community who helped to raise $19,808 to support refugee and immigrant families at For the Nations DC (If you want to help get us to 100%, the link is below!)

Because people like you give, little girls like her can attend early childhood classes (all in English) at no cost while their moms are studying English. At For the Nations DC, more than 300 people of all ages attend classes every year—learning English, hearing the Good News, and getting practical help so they can thrive in our community.

Loving our neighbors—and flourishing together in friendships—is a blessing.

Today is with a gift match through midnight! You can double your impact for your refugee and immigrant neighbors.

When one of our ESOL students at For the Nations DC heard that someone had paid for her book, she cried. That's the power of your gift: showing immigrants that they are cared for and valued.

Their ability to finish the school year strong with English studies (including free childcare for their kids) depends on your support right now.

We’re working to raise $20,000 by the end of today through Spring2Action, our community day of giving hosted by ACT for Alexandria. Your gift today helps provide English classes, Gospel hope, and practical support for life in a new place.

Will you join us?

Spring2Action is almost here!

April 22 is our local day of giving, Spring2Action. It’s your opportunity to make a powerful impact for your local community. Your new neighbors need English classes and a supportive community as they build new lives in the U.S.

Your gift will provide English classes, practical help, and Gospel hope for your refugee and immigrant neighbors. Early giving is available now!

An FTNDC volunteer recently said, “Every week, I am excited to come spend time with my new friends.”

So many volunteers and students come to For the Nations DC because of the people. Teaching English is only one part of it!

Day after day, people slowly build relationships that go beyond classroom roles, and both volunteers and students start saying “my friend.”

That’s the beauty of the cross-cultural community that God has built at FTNDC. Relationships matter! We’re so grateful for the volunteers who invest every week in these relationships, inside and outside of the classroom.

Refugees and immigrants need support that lasts long after they arrive in the U.S. Not only do they want to learn English, they also want deep friendships, especially since many left friends and family behind when they came here.

That's why your support of For the Nations DC matters: you can help provide English programs for adults and children, and give them a place to build long-term friendships.

Your gift before December 31 will DOUBLE to meet your new neighbors’ greatest needs.
