Dear Donors and Friends,

We warmly invite you to support the 25th Annual World Refugee Day Celebration, hosted by the Alliance for African Assistance, on Wednesday, June 18, 2025, at 8:30 AM at La Jolla Presbyterian Church. This special event will bring together leaders, supporters, and advocates in San Diego to honor the strength and resilience of refugees from around the world who now call our community home.

Each year on World Refugee Day, we gather to recognize the courage, resilience, and strength of millions of individuals who have been forced to flee their homes due to conflict, persecution, and hardship. It is a time to reflect, to celebrate the lives and contributions of refugees in our community, and to reaffirm our commitment to creating a more compassionate and inclusive world.

This year’s event will feature inspiring stories of hope, cultural performances, guest speakers, and a community breakfast. It is an opportunity for people from all walks of life to come together and stand in solidarity with those rebuilding their lives in San Diego.

Your presence would be deeply appreciated, and we would be honored to have you join us in this celebration of strength, diversity, and shared humanity.

To RSVP or learn more about table sponsorship and donation opportunities, please contact us at events@alliance-for-africa.org.

We hope you will join us for this meaningful occasion.

Warmest regards,

Roger Haines

Chair of the Board
