Neighbors in Need Fundraiser

Neighbors in need is a Facebook group of 2500+ Maine residents who work together to assist immigrants new to the state. While our presence together is online, the work happens in person, from neighbor to new neighbor.

Our new neighbors come to us with very little in the way of material belongings. We assist them in obtaining household and personal items by enlisting the aid of a broader group of willing hands. In doing so, we hope to ease their transition to their new lives as they begin to settle and make a new home here.

We are also a forum for asking questions, discussing common challenges, and sharing events related to this work.
