The Center for Arab American Philanthropy (CAAP) and the Syrian American Club recently hosted Houston’s 2nd annual 100 Arab American Women Who Care giving circle.

Together, attendees gathered their donations into one impactful grant of $8,200 for the SAC Refugee Support Program. Through the voting process, the group chose to support the program’s emergency aid initiative, which provides critical resettlement services such as food and rent assistance.

At the event, we had the privilege of enjoying a beautiful musical performance rooted in our love for our homeland from Michael Ibrahim and Usama Baalbaki from the National Arab Orchestra.
