Supporting Refugee Integration Through Workplace-Ready English

At New Heights English, we believe that language access is one of the most powerful tools for stability, dignity, and long-term success. That belief is at the heart of our ongoing partnership with Bethany Christian Services in Athens, Georgia, through which we provide English (ESL) classes to approved refugees resettling in the United States.

For newly arrived refugees, learning English is not just about communication—it’s about survival, employment, and belonging. Many of the students we serve are eager to work, support their families, and contribute to their new communities, but they face immediate language barriers that make navigating daily life and the workplace incredibly challenging.

Through this partnership, New Heights English delivers practical, beginner-level ESL instruction focused on:

• Everyday communication
• Workplace readiness
• Safety and job-related vocabulary
• Confidence in speaking and listening

Our goal is to help refugees move beyond basic survival English and toward meaningful employment and long-term independence.

Why Corporate Support Matters Right Now

Funding that currently supports these ESL programs is scheduled to end in March 2026. Without additional support, access to free or low-cost English instruction for many approved refugees may be reduced or eliminated—at the very moment when language training is most critical.

This is where corporate sponsorships can make a direct, measurable impact.

By sponsoring ESL classes through New Heights English, companies can:

• Support workforce readiness for newcomers
• Invest in safer, more inclusive communities
• Align their brand with meaningful social impact
• Help bridge language gaps that affect local labor markets

For businesses—especially those in manufacturing, logistics, and service industries—this support also helps create a stronger pipeline of employees who are better prepared to succeed on the job.

Tax-Deductible Giving with Real Impact

Corporate sponsorships and charitable donations made to support this program are tax-deductible, making it a powerful way to give back while meeting corporate social responsibility goals. Contributions go directly toward instruction, materials, and program delivery that remove barriers for refugee learners.

At New Heights English, we are proud to work alongside Bethany Christian Services to provide language education that changes lives—but we cannot do it alone.

If your company is interested in sponsoring ESL classes or learning more about how to support refugee education efforts before funding ends in March 2026, we would love to connect.
