Today, June 20 is World Refugee Day. Remember those who are forced from their homes by war, persecution and famine. Why not send a donation today to one of the many organizations big and small that are working with refugees around the world.
If there is someone you know in your community who is a refugee, try and get to know them — being ripped away from friends and family is one of the many impacts for refugees.
