A successful community will celebrate diversity, act inclusively, work intentionally to create opportunities and reduce barriers to individuals achieving success.

The Our Woven Community program provides local refugee women with opportunities for CREATIVITY, COMMUNITY INTEGRATION, and ECONOMIC GROWTH. You can support OWC artists by donating at https://burroughscenter.org/. Your donations help provide artists like Florida, OWC newest artist, the sewing supplies needed to create one-of-a-kind items at home.
Thank you to all of our volunteers and supporters! Your donations help keep food on the table for many of our neighbors during this difficult time. To learn more about the Burroughs Center and to make a donation, please visit our website @burroughscenter
Together we can help our neighbors make connections, pursue goals, and fully engage in the community. Students in the ESL program have continued improving their English throughout the pandemic due to at home virtual tutoring and small classroom learning—made possible through generous community support. Will you join us today to create opportunities for our neighbors to achieve their goals? To make a donation visit https://wp.me/Pac4TM-74
