Chicago Refugee Coalition
The Chicago Refugee Coalition is dedicated to developing innovative and responsive solutions that prioritize the dignity of refugees from all over the world. They have developed a comprehensive and multi-faceted approach that takes into account the individual circumstances of each refugee family they serve. As a national partner of Bombas, a social enterprise clothing company, they have donated and distributed over 10,000 new pairs of socks each year. Additionally, they conduct an annual coat drive campaign known as "Cookies & Coats" which collects new and gently used coats to provide warmth to Chicagoland refugee/migrant students.
