The refugee crisis around the world is tragically immense, with many counts estimating the total number of displaced people around the world to be significantly higher than 50 million. What's more is over time the world has seemingly taken the calamitous situation refugees face on a day-to-day basis as commonplace. While many organizations and people are doing everything they can to mitigate the heartbreaking circumstances refugees endure by physically accessing and reaching those refugees, many aid and protection organizations and people experience challenges in reaching refugee populations- Syrians, Palestinians, Sudanese, Rohingya, Afghans, Venezuelans, and more- due to war and conflict.

​

Noshi is one such organization, and in its inception, does not have the means to reach the refugees "caught-in-the-middle" that have yet to find exactly what their title implies they search for: refuge. However, a large percentage of the world's refugee population has found asylum, and those people do have the opportunity to rebuild their lives. Many of these refugees have found their way to the United States and in the local working districts of Noshi, and can return to stable, peaceful, and economically productive lives with the help of the local communities they endeavor to successfully integrate into. As such, Noshi works to facilitate this transition to normalcy for refugees in Maryland (Baltimore and Silver Spring) and surrounding locales.
