With Your Support, We Continued Changing Lives in 2026!

Because of your generosity, See Forward Ministries continued to make a meaningful impact in 2026. Together, we strengthened, supported, and empowered immigrant and refugee communities throughout Louisville, Kentucky, through programs that promote education, mental health, employment, community connection, and long-term success.

Here's a look at some of the incredible work your support made possible this year:

Refugee Health Promotion

Through the Refugee Health Promotion program, 517 neighbors gained the knowledge and confidence to access care. Sessions demystify appointments, prescriptions, and preventive routines while creating circles of trust where participants can name stress, grief, and hope.

The result is not only better navigation of the health system, but also a steady shift from crisis to proactive well-being for entire families.

English Language Training

180 adult learners advanced from basic phrases to the everyday language of work, school, and community.

Instruction blends practical vocabulary with real-life scenarios: speaking to a teacher, calling a landlord, and interviewing for a job so that every lesson translates immediately into confidence and independence.

Our classrooms become social anchors that reduce isolation, foster belonging, and strengthen resilience. Learners don't just study English; they connect with neighbors, access opportunities, and rebuild a sense of agency and hope.

Youth Mentoring

37 are paired with mentors who listen first and lift consistently. Weekly gatherings build friendship and leadership; campus visits and career exploration transform possibilities into plans.

As teens practice goal-setting, time management, and service, they develop the confidence and social capital to thrive in school and beyond.

Your investment expands mentoring circles, provides safe transportation, and funds enrichment experiences that open eyes and doors.

ReCast Project

More than 2,300 neighbors accessed trauma-informed, culturally responsive care designed for communities facing compounded stress.

From youth leadership to family counseling and connection to services, ReCAST builds protective factors and restores a sense of safety and belonging.

When tragedy struck, the community mobilized to raise $4,641 for a grieving family, providing evidence that support networks are real and ready.

Digital Literacy

Twenty participants received the hardware, skills, and confidence to function in a digital world, applying for jobs, communicating with schools, and accessing online services.

With partners like the Kentucky Colonels, the program is scaling so that more learners can log on to opportunity without barriers.

Employment Services

132 clients secured meaningful work through personalized coaching, resume and interview preparation, employer partnerships, and multilingual support.

The focus is long-term success: matching skills to roles, smoothing the first critical month with transit assistance, and coaching on workplace culture so new hires and employers thrive together.

Your support fuels job readiness sessions, employer outreach, and practical supports that make the first paycheck a gateway to stability.

At See Forward Ministries, we believe that every family deserves the opportunity to build a future filled with hope, stability, and belonging. Throughout 2026, we continued walking alongside refugees and immigrants as they navigated new opportunities and challenges, providing the tools, support, and community connections needed to succeed. We would love to have you join us in this mission!
