DONATE

Today is the day! Support The Center during Mohawk Valley Gives before 9:00 pm today, Friday September 19, 2025. The Center’s Board of Directors has created a special match for our first $1,000.00 in donations. Your donation (up to $100) will be matched dollar for dollar, doubling your support for The Center’s many services in support of refugees, migrants, and newcomers to the Mohawk Valley. 

And don’t forget that the entire Mohawk Valley Region benefits from our refugee neighbors. The City of Utica has one of the highest per capita percentage of refugees of any city in America. 32% of Utica residents speak a language other than English at home. Like other communities that welcome refugees and migrants, Utica has benefited economically and culturally from their arrival. With strong resettlement support in place at The Center, many of the over 18,000 refugees we have resettled over the years have remained in Utica, stabilizing the population and reversing the trend of population decline seen in many upstate NY cities. 

Please give what you can today to aid our mission to develop the products and services that enable us in building community with many cultures. Every contribution, no matter how small, makes a HUGE difference, and your donation is doubled today if you act fast!
