If you are looking to assist AFFMA during the summer break, please note that our crowdfunding and fundraising efforts continue. Making a Christmas contribution is a terrific way to give back in the season of giving.
Our crowdfunding Je suis Réfugié campaign has launched (now live at https://chuffed.org/project/free-migration-advice-for-refugees-and-asylum-seekers) and aims to garner funding to further help refugees and asylum seekers in need of AFFMA’s assistance.

Finally, on behalf of everyone here at AFFMA, we wish everyone a wonderful, safe and happy holiday season and prosperous New Year and we look forward to sharing with you regarding AFFMA’s successes and planned activities in 2016.
