Germany
Germany has a long history of welcoming refugees, and currently hosts the most refugees of any country in Europe. Newcomers often receive a small allowance each month in addition to food and clothing and toiletries. Programs are also being put in place to help with the ever-present problem of integrating refugees, especially in a country with an 18% immigrant population. The Community Programs team in Germany is actively engaged with local nonprofit organizations, serving in the community, and developing opportunities for collecting and sharing refugee stories.
