Ways to Serve.
Salem For Refugees relies heavily on volunteers to accomplish our mission. We are always looking for new people from the Salem area who want to join our volunteer teams and impact the lives of our new neighbors.
Monthly
Meetings
Join us on the first Monday of each month from 12pm - 1pm on Zoom to stay educated on what is happening with refugee resettlement in Salem and engaged in welcoming our newest neighbors. Learn More
Form a Good Neighbor Team
Good Neighbor Teams are designed to provide a warm welcome and hospitality to our New Neighbors. Teams range from 4-10 people who are assigned to a newly arriving family.
