Help us reach 100 new regular supporters this June...
This Refugee Week, we're coming together.
As demand for our services continues to grow and funding becomes increasingly uncertain, we're calling on our community for support.
Help us reach 100 new regular supporters this June and provide much-needed stability for refugees and people seeking asylum in Devon.
For just £5 a month - a little more than the cost of a coffee - you can make a real difference.
Help us reach 100 regular supporters this June.
Shehany Warnakulasuriya, Refugee Support Devon trustee:
"For 25 years, Refugee Support Devon has existed because ordinary people in Devon chose to care about their neighbours.
What began as a small group of volunteers has grown into a vital source of welcome and support for people fleeing war, persecution and the unimaginable.
Today, that welcome is under pressure. We are seeing rising hostility towards refugees and migrants, alongside policies that make it harder for people to rebuild their lives in safety and with dignity.
But we also know there is another story about Devon - one rooted in compassion, solidarity and community.
This Refugee Week, we’re asking people to become one of 100 new monthly donors. Just £5 a month can help provide the stability we urgently need to continue standing beside people seeking sanctuary."
You can hear more from Shehany about why this appeal matters on Instagram, Facebook and Linkedin. Please watch, share and help us spread the word.
As we mark 25 years of welcoming refugees and people seeking asylum in Devon, we're looking ahead to the next chapter of our work.
By becoming a regular supporter, you'll help us plan for the future and continue providing life-changing support to people rebuilding their lives in Devon.
Can you help us reach 100 new regular supporters this June?
Give £5 a month to refugees in Devon.
Together, we can ensure Devon remains a place of welcome.
