Refugee Development Center takes over FOX 47 News Instagram

The Refugee Development Center was announced as this month's Yes! Grant award winner on June 1, 2017. As a partner and non-profit in the community, we turned our Instagram account over to them for a week!

Here are some of our favorite posts from their takeover: 

 

RDC GLOBE Camp kids had an awesome day today ice skating at Suburban Ice and visiting Meridian Historical Village. Camp gives them a chance to visit and learn about many places in Mid-Michigan, alongside preparing for the next school year with classroom activities. ~@rdclansing #yes #WeSayYesToMichigan #Michigan #WSYM #SHFoundation #community #refugeedevelopmentcenter #rdc #refugeeswelcome #istandwithrefugees #refugees #lansing #igerslansing #lovelansing

In the spring, the Newcomers Soccer team participated in a Global Youth Service Day project. They worked with Lansing retirees to build and paint a home-team bench for the Lansing Soccer Club! ~@rdclansing #yes #WeSayYesToMichigan #Michigan #WSYM #SHFoundation #community  #refugeedevelopmentcenter #rdc #refugeeswelcome #istandwithrefugees #refugees #lansing #igerslansing #lovelansing

From all of us at @rdclansing, a huge THANK YOU to @fox47news for letting us take over your Instagram account for the week. We've loved sharing our views of Mid-Michigan with you all, and we wouldn't be able to do what we do without the awesome support of the community, our volunteers, and the wonderful people we are able to serve in Michigan. Thank you! ?? @rdclansing #yes #WeSayYesToMichigan #Michigan #WSYM #SHFoundation #community #refugeedevelopmentcenter #rdc #refugeeswelcome #istandwithrefugees #refugees #lansing #igerslansing #lovelansing
