The African Community Center of Denver (ACC) is a refugee resettlement agency with a mission to help refugees and immigrants rebuild safe, sustainable lives in Denver. They welcome families fleeing persecution from all over the world, from countries such as Afghanistan, the Democratic Republic of the Congo, Ukraine, and others.
In FY2023, ACC welcomed over 1,350 refugees & immigrants- the highest number they’ve ever welcomed during a twelve month period. They need support from the community to continue providing services to the increasing number of newcomers arriving in the U.S.
This May, supporters, volunteers, and refugee community members will come together to Run for Refugees at the Colfax Marathon races on May 18th & 19th. In addition to raising awareness for ACC, participants have the opportunity to set a fundraising goal to reach ahead of race day.
Every donation will get me closer to reaching our goal!
