Syrian Refugee Support

Chestnut Hill supports Syrian refugees living in Jordan through the UNHCR Lifeline program. This program provides funds so Syrian families can pay rent and send their children to school. A donation of $175 supports a family of 4 for a month.
We meet on the fourth Sunday of most months to plan fundraising, education, and cultural enrichment.
