Ride for Refugees

Show God's welcome and hope to refugees and asylees forced to flee their homes due to persecution.

Ride, walk, run or pledge--all our gifts go straight to our local partner World Relief to wrap around families with housing assistance, transportation, English language classes, job skills training, and emergency relief.

Chapel Hill will make a donation for every mile you complete to advocate for those seeking refuge!
