Lunch With The League Focuses On Belonging

Dr. Ágata Szczeszak-Brewer, co-founder of Immigrant Allies and professor of English at Wabash College will speak at the next Lunch with the League event.

Lunch with the League is scheduled for Friday at noon at Fusion 54. It is titled Let’s Foster Belonging.

Immigrant Allies, www.huemoco.org/immigrant-allies, co-founded by Kerri Warner and Brewer, is a sub-committee of HUE (Humans United for Equality).  It was formed to build a bridge and foster understanding between our community citizens and our community’s immigrants. Brewer was instrumental in applying for two grants which were awarded to support the work of this valuable organization: the first grant was to start bringing new members of our community (immigrants) together with more settled members to talk about shared concerns; the second is to help immigrants with transportation.

Brewer will speak about the grant called Foster Belonging, which will provide $7,000 to start developing an affordable ride-share program in Crawfordsville. The grant offers a unique opportunity to bring immigrant and non-immigrant populations together to solve a common problem. Her talk will focus on the immigrant population in town, volunteering needs, and the details of the Foster Belonging grant.

Please plan to join the League and gain valuable information you can use to help benefit our community members.
