Founded in May 2005 nohome.org was
created to provide options to the thousands of international
refugee families entering the United States each year.
Upon arriving in the United States
each individual refugee is given approximately 4 months
of temporary assistance from our government to get their
lives in order. Yet for the many that do arrive few
if any, speak our language, nor have the skills necessary
to gain meaningful employment. And they instead find
themselves once again without a home.
The goal of nohome.org is to provide
options today that will lay a solid foundation for our
new arrivals to build upon.
Our plan is simple; Learn Work Live.
Learn: Skills that
matter most
Put simply our goal is to provide the
skills that matter most in today’s economy. You
need a website and we have the people to build it. In
training refugees the basics of website design, we are
providing them with the opportunity to grow and to provide
for their families.
Work: Jobs that make
sense
Those that have excelled and are interested
will be offered a salaried position in one of our companies,
providing services including website design, graphic
design, network administration, sales and administrative
roles.
Live: Building Communities
With the money earned from the design
and development of your website, home will be built
by those who need them most. Once built, they will have
the opportunity to purchase and grow a community they
can truly be proud of.
