    City Church has participated in this initiative, as well as some local schools. We wanted to invite Christians throughout Boston to participate too!

    Carry the Future  is a global effort to collect and distribute baby carriers to refugee families fleeing war in Syria and Iraq. You may have already heard of this initiative – it collects donated baby carriers and distributes them to refugee families arriving in Greece. In the last 3 months, the effort gained traction with more than 5,000 global volunteers participating. CTF volunteers meet families as they come off ferries in Athens, and outfit mothers/fathers with donated baby carriers. This simple act makes a tremendous difference and leaves a powerful mark, making families’ journey across Europe safer and easier. This campaign has gone viral in November, with more than 6,000 moms collecting carriers in their communities. There are various drive locations currently active in MA.

    For additional information, please visit their Facebook page

    If you wish to participate to provide relief to refugee families while they are on their journeys to asylum, you can donate to CTF in the following ways:

    1. Send a carrier by mail: Carry the Future, 121 W. Lexington Dr. Suite L 106D, Glendale, CA 91203

    2. Purchase a carrier from CTF’s Amazon Wishlist

    3. Donate funds directly at CTF’s Indigogo page

    If you wish to participate:
    Please respond to Nisha Koshy and she will guide you with instructions for getting a drive in your church/organization started.
