OMRA is funded by donations and run by volunteers!! In 2024 OMRA offered more than $160,000 in monthly rental subsidies to 47 qualified refugee households and some asylum seekers.

OMRA also offers volunteer English tutors and arranges some delightful annual gatherings such as our annual picnic where canoe rides are enjoyed by many. Last year, one of the elder refugees said, "This is the best day of my life!" as she waded to shore after her first ever canoe ride.
