Description
We are excited to announce our first film screening event in Columbus!
The film is a documentary about an American program set up for refugee children. Run by the International Rescue Committee (founded by Albert Einstein to rescue Jewish refugees), the Refugee Youth Summer Academy transforms 120 kids speaking 26 languages from the world's hot spots-Iraq, Egypt, West Africa, Tibet, Burma and Bhutan-from tongue-tied newcomers into confident, savvy New Yorkers over the course of a six-week program.
As you might be aware, US Together, Inc. is under significant financial stress due to the President’s executive order suddenly cutting new arrivals by more than 50%. We have resettled over 400 people statewide already this year who still need our help, and we need to maintain our critical infrastructure to support our social service programs. We are currently faced with a sizable funding gap and are working hard to fill it. We hope you can help.
If you are interested in sponsorship opportunities, please contact Christine Garcia at cgarcia@ustogether.us, or at (614) 505-3880.
**Update** On the day of the event, we will accept some walk-in ticket sales at our table-not through the ticket office.
**There is a parking garage attached to the theater.
**We appreciate and thank our sponsors: Jack Roth Mitzvah Fund of the Columbus Jewish Foundation; DotX Technologies and The Beitler Family.
