Let's make this year the best!

Folks, this is an update:  The Trump administration has paused all federal grant funding as of Friday, January 14th. IRIS currently has $4 million in grants and contracts to help families and organizations in Connecticut and nationwide provide critical assistance to refugees living in our communities.  All funding to these grants and contracts has been paused, stopping funding to up to 800 refugee families and 20 assistance organizations.  This year, more than ever, we need to support IRIS. Please help me help them.  I will commit to matching donations up to $5,000. Let's make this work.

Thanks, Bill

This will be my fifth IRIS Run for the Refugees. I first ran to win races...and probably would still, if I were capable.  But learning more about IRIS, its mission and its accomplishments, I've come to see this first and foremost as a way to help out. I don't like asking for money but money is the fuel that helps them run (personally, I run on donuts!).  So, I'm asking you to to donate, and, as always, I will commit to matching donations, this year up to $2,500.  Please join me in helping IRIS complete their vitally important work.

 

Thank you.
