Organization
Oasis International works to bring the love of God into the lives of refugees who are relocating to St. Louis and healing from the effects of living in war torn countries. They provide English classes, furniture and clothing giveaway to new arrivals, driving lessons, benevolence support, citizenship classes, and many referrals to help newly arriving families learn to thrive in a new American culture. They also work hard to connect refugee families with supportive Christian communities and families with a goal of changing the statistic that only 10% of refugees are even befriended by an American.
Partnership
Oasis has been operating at capacity, and growing remarkably, for some time. The Brown Sisters invested in Oasis to engage in a strategic planning and operational development process to help identify its critical outcomes, reorganize its programs and services accordingly, more strategically leverage its human resources, and develop its revamped board of directors.
