The holidays feel different for many people. Everything is scary & very uncertain right now; it is easy to lose hope. While we are not shying away from the injustices, violence, & sadness happening around us, join us in confronting this darkness by uplifting glimmers of light.
The AFG office will be closed from December 25 - January 5 to allow our team to celebrate the holidays and rest from a year of hard and diligent work.
We look forward to continuing this work in 2024!
