TO DONATE:

KAREN COMMUNITY IN BUFFALO, NEW YORK

We are THE KAREN PEOPLE, an ethnic group from KAREN STATE, who had to flee our country and come to build new lives for our families in the United States. We estimate that there are over 10,000 KAREN, KARENNI, CHIN and BURMSE refugees who have arrived in Buffalo over the past 15 years, a significant percentage of our diverse city’s newest Americans.

WHAT WE DO:

Our office serve ethnic groups including Burmese, Chin, and Karenni. While our efforts are concentrated in the Buffalo region, our community events also draw Asian residents from Rochester, Syracuse, Ithaca, Utica, and Albany, extending our geographic reach.
