Purpose of Grant: Through volunteer service, training, and kindness, The Welcome To America Project (WTAP) helps to build bridges of compassion and neighborly understanding by bringing residents from the Valley to the apartments of newly-arriving refugee families and providing furniture, basic necessities, education, and additional resources, along with a warm welcome. WTAP’s Delivering Hope program offers a simple welcoming gesture, but it is one that lasts a lifetime. The purpose of this grant proposal is to support WTAP’s main program, Delivering Hope, so the organization may continue to increase basic home necessities and warm welcome services to newly-arriving refugee families so they may focus on finding work and supporting their families. 16.

Geographic area served Greater Phoenix Metro Gila River Indian Community Grant Application Grant Cycle 2018 Narrative Please structure your proposal to provide the following information in the order indicated. Provide the narrative in paragraph form in the text field provided. Please be thorough but strive for brevity. 1. Briefly describe the organization’s history, mission and goals. The Welcome to America Project (WTAP) was founded in 2001 in the aftermath of September 11th. After losing a brother-in-law in the towers, a Phoenix woman saw a photo in the local news of a refugee family living in the Valley and trying to escape the same danger that America had just encountered. She realized this family sought the same things they did – safety, housing, and a future free of fear for their children. She began collecting items for the family and when the donations kept flooding in, additional families were served. Seeing the need and the rallying of compassion of her community, the Welcome to America Project was born. WTAP is a nonprofit organization that creates community connections and builds bridges of neighborly understanding by providing furniture, basic necessities, education, and additional resources to newly arriving refugees. WTAP offers a simple welcoming gesture, but it is one that lasts a lifetime. WTAP, emphasis on the welcome, is the modern day "welcome wagon.” Over the past 16 years, WTAP has welcomed and served over 2,000 refugee families and distributed over $2.5 million worth of in-kind donations. As a community-based organization, WTAP engages over 1,300 volunteers each year in providing emergency basic household needs assistance to 175 refugee families already in the country legally and on their path to economic self-sufficiency. Additionally, and most importantly according to the families served, WTAP provides a community welcome upon the delivery of said household items. Not only are refugees provided with the items that make a house a home, they are warmly welcomed by their American neighbors and community members who help them to transform their empty physical space into one of comfort, safety and hope. By 2019, WTAP seeks to increase services to 300 families per year to come closer to meeting this extreme need. 2. If the applying organization is non-municipal or a non-profit 501c, please describe your relationship with Arizona municipalities including past and present support, whether through partnerships, collaborations, in-kind contributions, grants, tax-based funding or other. Describe the supporting municipality’s role in this project. If the applying organization is a municipality governmental sub-division please enter the text “Not applicable.” WTAP is a 501c(3) nonprofit organization 3. Describe the proposed project and planned goals and activities. Delivering Hope After an average of ten years in refugee camps outside their homeland, refugee families often arrive at Sky Harbor Airport with little more than the clothes on their backs and little knowledge of how to navigate America. With greater priorities hanging over their heads, WTAP's Delivering Hope program builds their assets Gila River Indian Community Grant Application Grant Cycle 2018 by providing everything they need for their home and providing encouragement from their American neighbors so they can focus on finding a job, feeding their families, and contributing to our community. More importantly, it restores their spirit so they have the fortitude to rebuild their lives and take on the challenges of physically, emotionally, and economically integrating into a new community. WTAP would like to request direct program operating funds for the Delivering Hope Program. Each delivery costs $480 and WTAP will do over 175 this year, totaling at least $84,000. WTAP would like to request $20,000 annually for three years from GRIC, funding 41 additional deliveries per year and totaling 125 families over the course of the three years and moving us closer to our goal of 300 families annually. Goals WTAP’s long-term goal is to expand nationally to meet refugee needs in communities in America where it is needed most. The first phase of that expansion will happen locally as WTAP moves to a larger warehouse space, only one mile from the previous warehouse. The larger warehouse space and conjoining office space will allow for increased intake of household items, improved processes for inventory, sorting, and packing, and most importantly, the capacity for more refugee families to be served. This year, WTAP is projected to make over 175 deliveries and it is our goal to increase services to 300 families per year by the end of 2019 through both the Delivering Hope program as well as through Extended Welcomes (supplemental for families who have fallen through the cracks or need additional services). Activities Activities begin with incoming donations from the community. The “Sorting” volunteers receive the weekly incoming donations and clean them, then sort them into their proper place in the warehouse for efficient packing and inventory. Prior to deliveries, “Home Visit” volunteers enter the apartments of newly arrived refugee families to assess their needs and wants. WTAP strives to meet 100% of families needs and 50% of their wants. This information is sent back to the warehouse so “Packing” volunteers can gather the household needs and wants in preparation for the delivery. Deliveries of all requested furniture and household items are made directly to families' apartments with a corps of 15 to 20 “Welcome Wagon” volunteers who not only welcome the families, but assist them in transforming a mostly empty apartment into a safe, comfortable home. Upon completion of the apartment transformation, community volunteers have the opportunity to sit with the family and learn about their stories, break stereotypes, and provide additional words of hope, encouragement and welcome. Gila River Indian Community Grant Application Grant Cycle 2018 4. Describe how the proposed project satisfies one or more of the priority funding areas identified by the Gila River Indian Community. WTAP’s Delivering Hope program supports economic development as a funding priority of GRIC by providing the already-perseverant and hard-working refugee population with the household basics so they can focus on providing for their families and contributing to the economy of their Valley community and America as a whole. According to the New Americans in Phoenix 2014 report, foreign-born individuals represented 20% of the population. 32.5% of the self-employed population were foreign-born, much more than their share of the population, and foreign-born entreprenurs generated $390 million in business income that year. In addition, $1 billion in federal taxes were paid and 14,052 local manufacturing jobs were created or preserved by foreign-born individuals. In 2016, Arizona received 4,851 refugees, ranking it the sixth highest U.S. resettlement state, according to the Arizona Department of Economic Security. That is 4,851 people that flowed into our local workforce and economy. Nationally, according to the New American Economy, refugee entrepreneurship rates are higher than those of other immigrants (13% of refugees compared to 11.5% of non-refugee immigrants) and in 2015 they earned a collective $77.2 billion in household income while contributing $20.9 billion in taxes. 5. Identify the needs/problems to be addressed, target population and number of people to be served by the project. In 2017, Arizona welcomed close to 3,000 refugees and Phoenix was the second largest resettlement city in the USA. In the same year, WTAP gave 754 refugee individuals a fully furnished and decorated apartment and a warm welcome, 100% of those people fell below the poverty line upon resettlement. This means that only 25% of incoming refugee families recieved the welcome they deserve from WTAP. WTAP seeks to close the gap of unserved families and allow them the chance to settle in quickly and actively pursue the American Dream. If awarded, GRIC funds will allow for service to 41 families each year with a total of 125 deliveries over the three-year span. This investment will further close the gap between refugees resettled in the Valley and refugees served by WTAP. 6. Define the project as a new or continuing program. Continuing 7. Provide a brief timeline including start and finish dates. Indicate if the timeline is flexible. Gila River Indian Community Grant Application Grant Cycle 2018 Each week, WTAP’s partnering agencies provide three to six referrals for families to be served. Select volunteers trained in the assessment and welcome process visit the families in their apartments and provide the initial needs assessment or “home visit” to identify basic home necessities as well as a few non-necessity items (i.e. toys, sewing machines, sporting equipment, tools) Monday through Wednesday of each week. On Tuesday and Wednesday of each week, additional volunteer teams sort the incoming deliveries of donated household items (delivered on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, and Saturdays) and on Thursday, further additional volunteer teams pack the needed items identified through the home visits for each family, carefully “shopping” in WTAP’s warehouse for the new or gently used items most appropriate for the family and ages of children. Finally, the Delivering Hope program is held every Saturday. Teams of 15 to 20 volunteers, led by specially trained Lead Volunteers, pack their cars and trucks and follow WTAP’s delivery truck to the apartments of three to six refugee families awaiting their items. Although told about the welcome/delivery beforehand, many refugee families are overwhelmed with the welcome and helping hands of the volunteers, causing an outbreak of hugs, humor and often times tea or music in gratitude. This cycle continued week after week, with many new and recurring voluteers. 8. Identify other organizations, partners or funders participating in the project and their roles. In addition to WTAP’s vast network of community volunteers, WTAP partners with AIRS, Catholic Charities, International Rescue Committee, Lutheran Social Services, and Refugee Focus for family referrals for our Delivering Hope program. Additionally, WTAP recently developed new partnerships with the Somali American United Council, Iraqi American Society of Peace of Friendship, Phoenix Head Start, Alhambra Elementary School District and Washington Elementary School District to provide extended services to families who may have “fallen through the cracks” upon arrival and are still in need of WTAP’s services. WTAP also has relationships with Goodwill, Stardust Building Supplies, Furnishing Dignity, Tuft & Needle, and Crate & Barrell to ensure the best possible items are delivered to the homes of the families served and no item is gone to waste in the larger community. 9. Would you be able to implement the proposed plan if your organization received partial funding for this project? If partial funding was received, WTAP would graciously use the funds to serve as many additional families as possible and will continue to seek funding to support the program and our community. The Delivering Hope Program is currently funded through a majority of grants as well as individual donations. Gila River Indian Community Grant Application Grant Cycle 2018 10. Describe your plan for project financial sustainability beyond the grant period. If this is a program/project previously funded by the Gila River Indian Community describe efforts made towards the previously described sustainability plan. WTAP has a broad range of support for in-kind donations for the families (in 2017 WTAP received over $225,000 in in-kind donations) and a diverse pool of dedicated and passionate volunteers. Currently, WTAP is supported by approximately 72% individuals through our annual event, giving society, and appeals (AZ Gives Day, Year End Tax Credit). WTAP is strategizing more corporate and foundation financial support to diversify revenue streams as well as strategizing increased multi-year giving society support to further sustain operations and impact into the future. Additionally, WTAP will further seek and implement diversification of funds in the forms of endowment and planned giving. 11. Describe your plan to document progress and results. WTAP measures the number of refugees served and the monetary value of in-kind donations delivered. The program is a success if requested items from families are fulfilled (100% needs and 50% wants) and the refugee families report a greater sense of welcome in their community after deliveries are made. Intermittently, WTAP conducts an outcome evaluation by interviewing previously served refugee families as well as the volunteers who supported them. Most recently in 2017, close to 100% of families surveyed identified that the community welcome is most impactful. Almost all families indicated that items come and go but the sense of hope given by the Welcome Wagon volunteers will last a lifetime. Volunteers will also be surveyed to determine if awareness and education outcomes were met. Measurements are kept internally as well as on WTAP’s customer relations management system, SalesForce. 12. Indicate any application to and/or awards made by a tribe other than the Gila River Indian Community for state shared revenues for this and any other project for the past five (5) years. If this information is included in a separate attachment, please indicate that here. No funding requests have ever been made to Tribal Communities by The Welcome to America Project.

Arizona Top Populations #’s DRC 540 Cuba 417 Iraq 325 Syria 208 Arizona Total 2892 Impact WTAP was able to maintain and even grow the Deliveries program during an unstable and tumultuous time for refugee resettlement. In light of the ban and the decrease in new arrivals, WTAP developed partnerships with Alhambra and Washington Elementary School District to serve refugee families in their schools that may have been here longer yet were still in need of services. While the number of refugees allowed in to America, the need to reach every family and let them know that their neighbors welcome and support them has become even more important.
