    I don’t remember the first time I heard Sly and the Family Stone. Maybe it was something I’d heard playing in the background of places I visited as a boy. But ultimately, that doesn’t matter so much. What mattered was…

    Fashion trends have come and gone. Some so absurd we believed they’d already hit rock bottom. Yet somehow, fashion always finds a way to dig deeper.

COOL HAND FRANK highlights purpose-driven organizations working to make this world healthier, happier, and better.

These times are rough for first- and second-generation immigrants in the United States, and especially those from non-European backgrounds. The U.S. immigration system needs significant improvement—reforming antiquated systems and outdated processes. Yet what remains indisputable is that the reasons for immigrating here today are mostly the same as they were for nearly every citizen’s ancestors.

For more than a century—since 1911—the nonprofit, non-governmental U.S. Committee for Refugees and Immigrants (USCRI), has helped refugees and immigrants overcome challenges in the pursuit of citizenship when the U.S. immigration system falls short.

According to USCRI, its mission is “To protect the rights and address the needs of persons in forced or voluntary migration worldwide and support their transition to a dignified life.” The organization provides legal, health, and children’s services, residential care, and resources to fight human trafficking for those navigating difficult circumstances.

You can support USCRI’s meaningful work in several ways: fundraising, sponsorship, offering employment opportunities, and, of course, donations.
