Off to School!

Kianush began attending a local preschool a few weeks ago. We are so grateful to all of those in the BCICRR community who stepped up to provide transportation every day. Kianush is adjusting well to this new environment that gives him a great opportunity to interact with kids his own age and learn every single day! Summer is just around the corner and he is excited to begin the camp program at the very same local school.
While we have secured transportation for Kianush, we still need drivers to help teach Ali and Masooma to drive. Both already have their learners permits! Could you donate an hour a week for the next month to help our new friends pass their driving exams? Ali is an experienced driver but needs some assistance in understanding American roads. Masooma is a new driver who could use your expertise! If you are available please click here to send us an email. This is a fantastic way to get to know this family!

Lighting a small candle tonight
For your child as you
Light a small candle for mine -
From hundreds of miles and years apart
We rhyme

Our interfaith community grounds our work in the teachings of our diverse traditions. Each meeting of BCICRR begins with a reading or reflection from a member of the community. We share one of them here.
WHO WE ARE
Bucks County Interfaith Coalition for Refugee Resettlement (BCICRR) was founded in 2016 as an all-volunteer group working together to support two Syrian families.
​
In 2022, the organization began sponsoring an Afghan family of six as they resettled in Bucks County. Another Afghan family arrived in March 2025. The BCICRR coalition is made up of Christians, Jews, Muslims, and others who have come together to provide friendship, practical assistance, and financial support for these families. Along the way we have become an extended family, supporting and learning from one another.
