Hope for a Hurting World gift catalog helps refugees

Heartland Alliance for Human Needs and Human Rights

This group in Chicago works to help refugees and immigrants and has a new gift catalog, with all of the proceeds going to providing this assistance.

Parents lost jobs, families lost homes, many fell into poverty, all while funds for services in city and state budgets were reduced and sometimes completely eliminated. But at Heartland Alliance, budget cuts haven’t stopped the work, they are still providing help to people who need a home, or a doctor or protection from harm. Proceeds from this catalog should help replace some of the funds they are lacking.

Check out the gift catalog online at http://www.heartlandalliance.org/gifts. There are great gifts, including things like winter outerwear for a child, health care for a homeless person, or job skills training for parents.
