KHALIL'S SPONSORS CHRISTMAS PARTY FOR SOMALI-BANTU REFUGEES

My parents have put on annual Christmas parties for those less fortunate since I was a child.  After my mother passed, we continued the tradition.  In most recent years, holding Christmas parties for refugees from all over the world.  Last year we hosted refugees from Sri Lanka, Myanmar and other South East Asian countries.
