About Us

OUR MISSION

Refuge for Nations is a nonprofit social enterprise committed to empowering refugee women across Metro Detroit. We provide all the support needed for immigrant and refugee women to not just survive, but to thrive in the new life ahead of them. From breaking down language barriers with our ESL (English as a Second Language) courses to learning skilled trades that lead to eventual employment, our organization empowers women with the tools needed to build a meaningful life for themselves as well as their families. 

OUR VISION

Through strategic partnerships with the greater community, it is our aim to grow employment opportunities for women who may not immediately thrive in traditional work settings.  We hope to be able to provide new avenues for employment, assistance with housing, and any other support needed to settle comfortably. Through these efforts, we also look for ways we can give back or contribute to the greater community.

OUR HISTORY

  • Pre 2017: Occasionally offered sewing classes but began to see the need for a consistent program to promote growth for immigrant and refugee women
  • 2017: RFN officially became a recognized 501C3 organization
  • 2020: We stepped in to help sew masks during the pandemic which brought the realization that RFN can build a workforce
  • 2022: We are engaging in more projects and have hired several women as part of the workforce 

OUR PRODUCTS

From women's clothing and accessories to baby products, our women are ready to serve you! We offer custom products for partners and other causes close to our heart.
