Resources for our Newly Arrived Refugee Community Members

  • Emergency Funds

    AHI has raised funds for an Emergency Fund for Newly Arrived Afghan refugees. Resettlement assistance is limited and only lasts a maximum of 90 days. Under the pandemic, we know refugees will not be fully resettled or have income from a job by then. Contact for Assistance at info@afghanhealth.org or 253-237-6214

  • Essential Items for Infants, Children, Expecting Mothers

    As an EBC partner, Afghan Health Initiative is able to provide children ages 0 to 12 years old with important items such as supplemental baby formula, carseats, strollers, diapers, wipes, baby pack-n-plays, bassinets, clothing, toys, books, and more. We are also able to provide items for expecting and postpartum mothers with maternity wear, personal care goods and mother-infant support items.
