Campaign Purpose

The "Run With Refuge – Unite for Hope" campaign is a transformational, community-centered initiative designed to strengthen families, uplift the vulnerable, and restore hope across East Texas through faith, action, and generosity. This campaign aims to bridge gaps in essential services and deepen spiritual roots by bringing people together for a common cause: to serve, support, and stand with those in need.

Rooted in the mission of New City Of Refuge Inc., the campaign will raise critical funds to expand our outreach programs, including youth mentorship, emergency shelter support, food distribution, and spiritual guidance. It invites individuals, churches, and businesses to step forward in faith, offering their time, talents, and resources to create a ripple effect of love and healing.

More than just a fundraiser, this campaign is a movement of restoration. It’s about uniting the body of Christ, empowering our neighbors, and declaring that no one walks alone. Together, we will build a refuge where lives are transformed and communities are made whole.
