The IRC in Maryland is excited to announce our partnership with Whole Foods Market. We invite you to join us on January 11th to participate in Whole Food’s Community Giving day. Come meet a few of the IRC in Maryland’s incredible staff members, learn more about the work of the IRC in Maryland, and stock your pantry

while you’re there. If you are unable to attend, you can still help by sending this email to your network or by sharing details from the IRC in Silver Spring Facebook page. Every dollar we raise will help refugees living in our communities.

Funds raised will be used to provide culturally appropriate welcome food for newly arrived refugees, orienting refugees on how to access local grocery stores, and providing information about nutritious food options.
