Save OCSS Refugee Donation Warehouse- 2024 Rent

Tax deductible
One Community Social Services serves as a secondary line of support to an unlimited amount of resettlement agencies across the region. We are the only organization in the DMV area that provides necessities such as clothing, toiletries, infant and baby goods, educational resources, shoes, furniture, and household items for free to all who need it. We have been the ones to fill in the gaps that all of the DMV resettlement agencies could not due to an over-saturation of need. OCSS is a hub for volunteerism, collectivism, and community. Dozens of volunteers enjoy serving the refugee community with us, and hundreds of individuals rely on our services each week.

If OCSS does not raise enough to cover the $2000/monthly rent for our warehouse, we will have to shut down immediately and hundreds of existing and incoming families will lose access to our services.

One Community Social Services (OCSS) is a 501(c)3 non-profit organization that was established as a response to the sudden influx of refugees from Afghanistan in the D.C., Maryland, and Virginia (DMV) area in 2021. We were officially deemed a non-profit organization in 2023, however all members of this organization have been key personnel in the relief efforts for over 30,000 Afghan refugees in the DMV since August 21st, 2021.

OCSS has not been able to obtain the appropriate amount of federal funding due to a halt in access of aid for refugee relief. OCSS is in dire need of funds to cover the rent of our warehouse where all of our services are located to stay afloat.

ALL donations from this fundraiser are strictly for the rental costs of our warehouse.
