Financial Literacy and Public Speaking Summer Camp for refugees - Partnership with Light and Salt Academy
A summer camp which included in-depth knowledge into budgeting, managing income, details into how taxes and interest works, and more details into how to manage a good financial life that is secure. The class also included public speaking skills such as thinking on the top of your feet, persuasive speech, and using techniques like confidence and rhetorical devices in your speeches. It included over 15+ refugees taught over the whole U.S.: Iowa, Texas, Minnesota, and Michigan.
International Rescue Committee
Care Packages Drive - Recently, Voiceopedia partnered with the International Rescue Committee to create care packages! These packages contained basic amenities including clothes, food, inner garments, and many more. We can’t wait to partner with them more :)
Oakland Refugee Festival
Check out Voiceopedia’s most recent event: World Refugee Day! Many of our members had the wonderful opportunity to represent our organization and meet other organizations that conduct humanitarian aid.
Hygiene Packs Service Event
Voiceopedia recently partnered with EVHS Key Club to pack 100 hygiene packs for refugees! The hygiene packs contain toothbrushes, soap, deodorant, and most of all, handmade cards the volunteers made by hand. These hygiene packs were donated to the International Rescue Committee (IRC). Thank you to all the volunteers for their hard work!
School Supplies Drive
We went to the International Rescue Committee in San Jose and packed over 35 backpacks filled with school supplies for our refugee community!! All these supplies were given to young refugee kids that are in need of better resources for school. Thank you to everyone who donated money at our bake sale to fund these supplies.

Hygiene Packs Service Event
We recently held a successful collaboration with EVHS Key Club where volunteers from both Voiceopedia and Key Club created hygiene packs for refugees and homemade cards to put a smile on their faces! In total, the volunteers made 100 packs and filled them with essentials that any refugee needs. All of these packs were donated to the IRC to hand out to refugees in need.
