World Refugee Day Celebration
World Refugee Day Celebration

SAVE THE DATE!

Please see a general flyer for the June 8th World Refugee Day celebration in partnership with the local resettlement agencies and Sacramento Republic FC! We will have three events throughout June and July to celebrate refugees, starting with a family fun day and refugee adult soccer tournament on June 8th, followed by a storytelling night on June 20th, and finalized with Sacramento Republic FC’s home game on July 13th spotlighting World Relief Sacramento. During that game, a trophy will be presented at halftime to the winners of our June 8th refugee soccer tournament. 

Please visit the World Refugee Day website to learn more about how you can be involved at our resource fair (early bird registration through May 8th), as a sponsor/volunteer/player, or if you just want to come and enjoy this FREE event. We are expecting Mayor Steinberg to be there again and to make the event bigger and better this year!

Feel free to contact me with any questions – I’m looking forward to seeing you all there.
