DURING 2016, TUCSON BECAME HOME FOR APPROXIMATELY 1,000 REFUGEES WHO HAD FLED VIOLENCE, OPPRESSION AND PERSECUTION IN THEIR NATIVE COUNTRIES. WAITING AN AVERAGE OF 17 YEARS, THESE REFUGEES WENT THROUGH A RIGOROUS SELECTION PROCESS FIRST WITH THE UNITED NATIONS HIGH COMMISSION FOR REFUGEES (UNHCR). ONCE APPROVED BY THE UNHCR, THEY THEN HAD TO PASS STRICT SECURITY SCREENINGS BY MULTIPLE U.S. AGENCIES BEFORE BEING PLACED IN CITIES THROUGHOUT THE UNITED STATES. WHEN REFUGEES ARRIVE IN TUCSON, TRM WELCOMES THEM WITH LOVE AND COMPASSION BY PARTNERING WITH RESETTLEMENT AGENCIES, TRAINING VOLUNTEERS FROM CHURCHES, AND BEFRIENDING THE REFUGEES. SPECIFIC ACCOMPLISHMENTS DURING 2016 INCLUDED WELCOMING HUNDREDS OF REFUGEES AT THE AIRPORT, EDUCATING NEARLY 700 PEOPLE THROUGH PRESENTATIONS, WORKSHOPS AND TRAINING, MOBILIZING 246 VOLUNTEERS, AND HOSTING INTERNATIONAL KIDS KAMP FOR 161 YOUTH FROM REFUGEE FAMILIES. TRM ALSO MATCHED VOLUNTEER CHURCH GROUPS WITH NEWLY ARRIVED REFUGEE FAMILIES THROUGH "WELCOME PARTNERSHIPS." THESE GROUPS OFFERED ONGOING FRIENDSHIP AND SUPPORT AS REFUGEE FAMILIES LEARN TO NAVIGATE LIFE IN AMERICA. IN ADDITION, TRM STAFF AND VOLUNTEERS PARTICIPATED IN SPECIAL EVENTS INCLUDING BABY SHOWERS, AN INTERNATIONAL THANKSGIVING DINNER, AND CHRISTMAS CAROLLING AT AN INTERNATIONAL APARTMENT COMMUNITY. 0 71133 71133 CHERIE GRAY EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR 55.00 40560 1200 0 JIM BRUMME PRESIDENT 3.00 0 0 0 JAMES ALLERTON VICE PRESIDENT 2.00 0 0 0 KAREN HENLEY SECRETARY 3.00 0 0 0 TOM COLLINS OUTGOING TREASURER, BOARD MEMBER 3.00 0 0 0 CAROL MOUNT INCOMING TREASURER 5.00 0 0 0 DOROTHY TERRAZAS BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0 0 0 DAVID DRUM BOARD MEMBER 1.00 0 0 0 BILL O'BRIEN BOARD MEMBER 3.00 0 0 0 PETE SEIFERTH BOARD MEMBER 3.00 0 0 0 X 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 THE ORGANIZATION 4520 N AVENIDA DE PAZ TUCSON AZ 857186704 5203609195 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 NONE NONE 1 X 67160 53425 51287 64989 96108 332969 67160 53425 51287 64989 96108 332969 332969 3 3 2 8 332977 25011 1.00000 1.00000 X RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED RESTRICTED FORM 990-EZ, PART I, LINE 4 - OTHER INVESTMENT INCOME DESCRIPTION: INTEREST INCOME.
