LexRAP is having a delicious fundraiser! The Hand-in-Hand Cafe is offering  
Middle Eastern appetizers and desserts. Orders accepted online at www.lexrap.org for pickup on Dec 18.  
 
The Lexington Refugee Assistance Program works with refugees and asylum seekers to promote independence and belonging. Over the years we have helped pay for driver education, trade school, college, English language learning, gift cards for our students at the start of each school year and again during the holiday season and more. In the near future, we will be helping to support one or more Afghan families as well. Help us keep these traditions going!  
 
100% of the fundraiser profits will go to LexRAP to support our refugee families and individuals. In the tradition of Hand-in-Hand Cafe, refugee women will cook together, get paid and work side by side with community volunteers during this fundraiser.
