Idaho Falls Bridge Builders

Our mission is to assist legal refugees who choose to relocate to Idaho Falls, and to assist the community in welcoming them.

In April 2022, through the Operation Allies Welcome program, the Idaho Falls Bridge Builders Sponsor Circle welcomed three Afghan Air Force pilots, allies of the US military operation, to Idaho Falls.  They are the first refugees in Idaho Falls in a very long time, probably the first since the Refugee Act of 1980. The community response has been so overwhelmingly positive that we formed this non-profit to continue supporting these three men and future refugees.

 In February 2023, through the Uniting for Ukraine program, a new three generational family arrived. Welcome to Idaho Falls! 

We are not showing photos of the newcomers or giving information that could identify them on this website, for their privacy and the safety of their families in their countries of origin.
