A note from Chelmsford Afghan Coalition
We in the communities that surround Chelmsford have come together in order to help Afghan families that live and work in our community. Relocated after the evacuation of Kabul, this family had the additional challenge of being separated from their parents, brothers, and sisters. This family has finally begun the process of reunification and will be reunited in the coming weeks. With this great news begins the hard work of finding housing, raising funds, and making sure our new neighbors are welcome, stable, and have the dignity of an American life. That’s what we can do for this family, with your help and support.
