As we celebrate Mother's Day next week, we want to honor all the mothers around the world. We know that every mother has a dream for her child. From South Sudan to Syria, we make it easier for moms to dream big for their kids. Each and every day we provide reliable health care, clean water, and safe places to live and play. Thank you for standing alongside us to give mothers what they need.
P.S. As you shop for Mother's Day, consider using Amazon Smile. .5% of your purchase will be donated to American Refugee Committee!

The team has been fundraising for the Cut It Out project in Nu Po Camp. Cut It Out trains hairdressers to identify and direct victims of intimate partner violence to help. It provides a new pathway for victims of domestic violence to access support. Over the course of the last five months, the HAUS team has raised $25,000 to support the project! While in the camp, they have been conducting a four-day hairdressing and hair cutting workshop for the hairdressers in Nu Po. Several of the staff in the camp have been growing their hair out to help out as models for the workshop. The HAUS team has also been able to meet the ARC staff and community whose work their funds will directly impact. "It makes it so real," said Charlie, owner of HAUS Salon. "These are actually the people we've been working so hard to help."
