Our Donors:

At our utmost gratitude, Voiceopedia strives of the generous donors who help us fund all of our community projects. We would like to thank them dearly for their kindness and constant support. This year we have accumulated over $9000 worth of donations, which will continue to fund our projects in 2023. Again, we are extremely appreciative of our donors, as without them nothing would be possible.

Over the past year, our donations from our monthly fundraisers allowed us to partner with local organizations such as the International Rescue Committee (refugee center) and Life Moves (homeless shelter), providing the resources they needed.

Voiceopedia members plan to conduct more projects with the International Rescue Committee, where we will kickstart a literacy program focused on the facets of writing and reading. It is integral that a language barrier does not prevent youth from expressing their opinions and participating in their community. We are grateful to have received these funds and will continue to use them to empower youth refugees in our community. Thank you & Happy New Year!
