July 26th Volunteer Event

Our Volunteers pictured with the Uhaul they loaded up with household furnishings. And they loved every second of it.

We’re hosting a Ruth’s Refuge volunteer event as part of the LFC Foundation’s Social Action Challenge 2026

On Sunday July 26th, an LFC Brooklyn crew will gather to move furnishings into the nearby apartment of a Ruth’s Refuge client. This could mean anything from loading/unloading a delivery truck to assembling furniture (details to come as the event approaches). Ruth’s Refuge provides furniture and home essentials to refugees, asylees and asylum seekers rebuilding their lives in New York City. Our volunteers always love the opportunity to support and welcome these newcomers, so, we go again!

Sign up below to join us. Space is very limited so sign up soon if interested and we’ll be in touch shortly to confirm your spot.

LFC Brooklyn is proud to support Ruth’s Refuge. Refugees and asylum seekers arrive in New York City with rich and varied life experiences but few tangible assets. Many recently settled families are unable to furnish their homes, often sleeping on the floor as they work to pay off debts, find jobs and otherwise struggle to make their way in an unfamiliar city. The goal at Ruth's Refuge is to welcome these families by providing them with apartment furnishings and other home essentials in partnership with local resettlement agencies.
