11th Annual Dinner and Auction Fundraiser

One Home, Many Families! ReWA Keeps it Alive.

Join us for the 11th Annual Fundraiser Dinner and Auction on November 2, 2007. ReWA is an amazing organization that brings the world to the greater Puget Sound area by shining the light on diversity and valuing differences as one home with many families. Since 1985, ReWA has served refugee and immigrant women and their families in King and Snohomish Counties using an asset based model that focuses on the talents, strength and challenges each family brings with them and utilizes that knowledge to help build better lives and communities.

Past Events

Thank you to Make a Difference runners!

Run to Make a DifferenceEvery day, refugees and immigrants in our community courageously meet challenges most of us will never face.

Imagine the courage it takes to walk away from everything familiar and start a new life for your family.

ReWA's first "Run to Make a Difference" team showed their support for the courageous refugee and immigrant families who meet these challenges every day by meeting a challenge of their own:

ReWA's Run to Make a Difference team participated in the 2006 Seattle Marathon!

They pledged to raise $500 or more for ReWA’s programs and services directly benefiting women and families, and ReWA provided fundraising support, registered the team and supported runners from day one of training through their big day on Sunday, November 26th.

Team members raised more than $6,500 to support ReWA's programs!

Thank you for visiting ReWA's booth at this multi-cultural, ethnically diverse Celebration of Children, Youth & Families. Fair goers were able to access resources on the street: books, parenting tools, school supplies, backpacks, clothing, and community services. They learned about remarkable organizations, local businesses & entrepreneurs. This was a wonderful afternoon of music, food, fellowship, arts & crafts, farmers market, and children's activities, while building community.
