World Relief
Volunteer with a refugee family
Local offices place volunteers with newly arrived refugee families for airport welcomes, apartment setup, English practice, and the long, ordinary work of a first year in a new country.
Why this is listed
Placement is local and relational rather than one-off, and the volunteer role is defined clearly enough that a first-timer knows what they are agreeing to. Founded by the National Association of Evangelicals in 1944 and still working through local churches rather than around them.
