The U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants’ Des Moines field office announced that an Iowa donor has pledged to match every dollar donated to the organization, up to $125,000. The pledge comes as USCRI has been forced to reduce staff and limit services due to executive orders, changes in federal policy and funding restrictions from the White House, a news release said. The funds from donations will support services such as youth programs, English classes, health care navigation, employment support and legal assistance to immigrants. To contribute, donors are encouraged to mail checks or money orders directly to: USCRI Des Moines, 1200 University Ave, Suite 205, Des Moines, IA 50314.
