Send a Postcard of Hope to a Child in Need.
Any Refugee was founded in 2014 by a ten year-old Alaskan boy, William Scannell IV.
The idea for Any Refugee came from a story he heard from his dad about how people used to be able to send letters addressed to Any Soldier. William took this idea and put it to work helping refugee children, to love and comfort them. His school got involved and it just kept growing.
On October 15, 2015, Any Refugee became part of the Jesuit Refugee Service/USA.
The mission of Jesuit Refugee Service/USA is to accompany, serve and advocate for the rights of refugees and other forcibly displaced persons. JRS works in more than 45 countries worldwide to meet the educational, health, social and other needs of refugees and other forcibly displaced persons.
