Thank you to New Roots Farm, who offered a tour to our volunteers on Tuesday evening! New Roots Charlottesville provided a wealth of information about the farm, their programs, and the community New Roots has fostered and supported over the years. Volunteers also got to glimpse the building of a tandoor oven!

If you are interested in checking out the farm or volunteering with the IRC in Charlottesville, connect with us via email at [email protected] or visit https://www.rescue.org/volunteer-opportunities/charlottesville-va to learn more.

The distance between us isn't as wide as it seems. And when we see each other through our shared humanity, that distance begins to disappear.
Thank you to our community for taking action to close the distance through partnerships, donations, and volunteer service.

Our experiences may differ, but our needs are deeply human and widely shared. Closing the distance begins with recognizing that what connects us is stronger than what divides us. The search for refuge, dignity and belonging is not foreign. It is familiar.

At the IRC, our staff, volunteers, donors, and partners close the gap from crisis to compassion, grounding our work in our shared humanity. Be a part of it. Donate at iRC.DonorDrive.com/VirginiaEmergencyResponseFund, and volunteer at Rescue.org/Charlottesville
