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?

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.

In the last year, we had the joy of walking with 205 adult ESOL students at For the Nations DC. English is a very difficult language to learn, and every person’s learning pace is different. In all class levels, students showed great dedication in their studies and improved their confidence in speaking English. Their hard work is inspiring, and we can’t wait to continue learning together in the new year!
