Join us with Airbnb, WeWork and the International Rescue Committee (IRC) to welcome refugees to Los Angeles. This is an evening of Syrian dinner and conversation to learn how you can support the local community through Airbnb's Open Homes program and WeWork's Refugee Initiative.
With Open Homes, offer your extra space (like a spare bedroom or secondary suite) to refugees in need of temporary housing. You create an online profile for your space and trusted nonprofit partners help match your accommodations to people in need.
With the WeWork Refugee Initiative, if you are interested in making a commitment to hiring, you will be connected to WeWork's network of partners to help you find qualified refugee candidates for your job openings.
Come meet us, and watch a brief presentation about our programs. We'll show you how to sign up and answer any questions you may have. Miry's List and the New Arrival Supper Club will be providing authentic Syrian dinner to learn about Syrian culture through food.
Have friends, family or coworkers who would be interested in this program? Please spread the good word! Space is limited, so RSVP is required.
