TEAM BROWNSVILLE

Humanitarian Assistance for Asylum Seekers

Together we work to help asylum seekers who find themselves in Brownsville, Texas and at the Brownsville/Matamoros international bridges.

Team Brownsville was founded in July 2018, by a small group of like minded educator volunteers. Since that time, our membership and our mission has expanded with the help of volunteers and donors from around the globe.

TEAM BROWNSVILLE AT A GLANCE

Team Brownsville volunteers help families and individuals legally seeking asylum in the United States.

The team adapts to the conditions on the ground and has offered a variety of programs in the last two years to assist asylum seekers.

We provide food, water, shelter, and basic necessities. We sponsor an "Escuelita de la banqueta" program for school aged children, and we support a variety of legal, medical, and other services for this vulnerable population.

Since the onset of the COVID-19 Pandemic most of our programs have changed from being delivered by volunteers to being supported by donations and delivered by local suppliers in Matamoros.

PROGRAMS

Corona Virus Update (COVID-19)

We are not currently seeking volunteers. COVID-19 precautions make most of our programs off-limits to volunteers for the time-being. Please consider channeling your volunteer spirit toward donations if you can.
