Shoreline Community College PUB Building 9000, Main Dining Room
At the Shoreline Community College Foundation Giving Table event this year, you will meet Mohammad. Mohammad grew up in Kabul and worked for the NATO and US Forces stationed there. In 2021, he and his wife were evacuated from Afghanistan, since it was no longer safe for people like Mohammad who had helped the US Forces. Arriving in New Jersey as a refugee, Mohammad and his wife were relocated to Washington.  When you support events like this, you give students who have faced extraordinary challenges the opportunity to build a new life and achieve their dreams. Your gift is an investment in resilience, hope, and a brighter future for people who have overcome incredible obstacles. RSVP here.
