ACF 2U has helped thousands across across Ukraine (including Kyiv, Chernihiv, and Sumy) to reconstruct homes, provide food and personal care items, care for elderly residents, and support families and children since 2013. AFC 2U has sustained its daily operations since the start of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

AFC 2U and Stop Russian Terror are partnering to reconstruct an existing building to serve as a rehabilitation center for wounded children and their families who have been impacted by the trauma of war. This newly established center would become a base for professional training and improvement of psychological rehabilitation personnel.

This $825,000 project aims to fix the hearts and souls of our future and to counter the possibility of a Lost Generation in Ukraine.

HEAR YOUR SONG’S 10TH ANNIVERSARY SYMPOSIUM & CONCERT

featuring

Members of the Yale Glee ClubMembers of Hear Your Song’s Yale College chapterYouth songwriters in the Hear Your Song communityYale College alumni

MEET HEAR YOUR SONG

Hear Your Song is a Yale-founded 501(c)(3) nonprofit that empowers children and teens with serious illnesses and complex health needs, both physical and mental health diagnoses, to make their voices heard through collaborative songwriting. Ten years, after Hear Your Song got its start as a student organization, join us to celebrate the more than 500 youth songwriters who have brought their songs to life through this community. Join founding alumni, the current Yale undergraduate chapter, members of the Yale Glee Club, and some of the youth songwriters themselves for an afternoon of music, conversation, and food!

HOW DID HEAR YOUR SONG BEGIN?

One night in May 2014, a group of friends at Yale University crowded into a tiny studio to record a few songs: “The Cow Dances With Her Arms,” “A Warm Place,” and “Simba And I Are Not Friends (Just Kidding!).” These songs, with lyrics by Maria, Melissa, and Justice, pediatric residents at Elizabeth Seton Children’s in Yonkers, NY, marked the beginning of Hear Your Song’s adventures.

Dan Rubins and Rebecca Brudner co-founded Hear Your Song as a student organization when they were sophomores at Yale University. Hear Your Song’s first partnerships were with Elizabeth Seton Children’s in Yonkers, NY and Yale-New Haven Children’s Hospital.

In March 2020, in response to the COVID-19 global pandemic, Dan and Rebecca recognized that sick and immunocompromised kids needed a platform to share their stories and make their voices heard more than ever. That spring and summer, Hear Your Song began its national expansion, launching a virtual program model and building new campus-based chapters and partnerships.

Hear Your Song has now recorded well over 500 songs written by youth songwriters ages 6-18 across the country and around the world. In their songs, youth songwriters write about anything they want to share, from loving pasta to living with epilepsy.

The migration of the Prophet Muhammad from Makkah to Medina is one of the most iconic spiritual journeys in sacred history. With the aid of historians, geographers and intrepid adventurers, the exact route of that migration has now been plotted and replicated.

We delve into history and witness the legacy of the Prophet’s momentous migration brought to life through film and discussion. Following in the exact footsteps of the Prophet Muhammad on the migration route from Makkah to Medina, they visited the same landmarks and locations, mirroring the Prophet’s journey 1,400 years ago.

Experience the culmination of this remarkable expedition with the US premiere of the trip documentary followed by a captivating presentation and conversation with Dr. Hassam.

Volunteers are strongly encouraged to wear N95 masks during service.

Sunrise Cafe has been serving breakfast without charge to New Haven’s homeless and hungry since 2015. Each weekday morning, the Cafe welcomes guests to the undercroft of St. Paul and St. James, near Wooster Square and three blocks south of the New Haven Green with white tablecloths, flowers and a rotating menu of fresh, warm, nutritious home-cooked food. Your generosity opens our doors.

Cheerful volunteers take each order individually, deliver the breakfast to our guest and help our paid chef in the kitchen. Thelma Ragsdale, Operations Manager, and our volunteers ensure every guest is warmly welcomed.

Sunrise Cafe is uniquely welcoming and secure, based on trust and mutual respect, and the rapport built between the volunteer servers and our guests. With a warm welcome and just two rules – no drugs on the premises and no arguments – Sunrise has become a community center for the homeless, a place to come every weekday morning and gather with friends.

Hungry friends come for the home-cooked, nourishing breakfast and stay for simple medical services offered by the Cornell Scott Health Center and access to support from social services to find housing.

Sunrise provides a unique opportunity to bridge New Haven’s inequalities that separate us from one another. Volunteers come once and become regulars. Guests and volunteers become friends and greet one another on the street.
