Our next, Next Generation Educational Program is currently open for students to apply.  This program enables adults between the ages of 18 to about 30 with obtaining their High School Diploma. The program also includes basic life skills, job skills, computer skills, financial literacy, English communication, and drivers safety and education which we believe are imperative for our clients to learn.  The Campaign is to hep raise only a portion ($6000) of the $25,000 needed to allow five clients to go through the program.  The cost helps to cover course fees, educational supplies, transportation help, drivers ed costs, graduation costs, organizationl office equipment and supplies used for this program and administrative oversight.

This program is specifically designed with the practical needs of our Next Gen aged clients in mind.  Asha’s Refuge serves the needs of our multi-cultural urban community through family services, training and Christ-centered leadership.  The Next Gen Ed program falls in line with our mission to help the refugee and asylee community successfully resettle within the Memphis area.  Having a high school diploma means better job opportunities and maybe better pay.  It helps clients to learn the skills necessary to get through life.  We believe it also opens doors for generations forward.

Students are selected in this program on a first come, first serve basis as our funds allow, but must also meet the eligibility requirements of the program.  Email jamie@ashasrefuge.org for a list of these requirements.
