We, IRIS Refugee Young Women Leaders, are teen refugees from Africa and the Middle East who have resettled to New Haven, CT.

We are raising funds to build a firewall to protect our new school in Kibera, Kenya.

Connect-Us is raising $6,000 to fund the launch of the Bridgeport Young Leaders Summer Fellowship Program! Our goal is to host 5 youth leaders from the Bridgeport community for a 6-week, paid fellowship with Connect-Us to help lead our outreach and organizing efforts, and train directly with our executive director in community development and grassroots activism in order to introduce to and engage 500 people in our free community programs!
