The Story of Friends of Welcoming

June 14th, 2011

Interest in Welcoming America’s work is growing at a tremendous rate. More and more Americans are recognizing that our communities are strongest when everyone living in them feels like they belong. We are getting phone calls and emails daily from people who want to join our expanding network.

In response to this unprecedented interest, we’ve launched a new online platform called Friends of Welcoming.

Before the development of this site, the only way people could interact directly with our organization was to partner with an existing Welcoming Affiliate or apply to form their own Affiliate. Unfortunately, our affiliates are not located in every state, and not everyone has the time or  desire to start their own.  Now, for individuals, groups of friends, and organizations that are not ready to become full Affiliates, there’s an easy way to get involved.

Friends of Welcoming is a fun, interactive way to make a difference in your community and connect with others who are doing the same across the nation.  Please join Friends of Welcoming today and get started earning points, winning prizes, and making your community more welcoming to all.

Welcome to the movement!

Sincerely,

David Lubell
Executive Director, Welcoming America
We are thrilled that so many of you want to make your communities a more welcoming place for all, including immigrants.
