The organization was founded in the aftermath of World War II to respond to the urgent humanitarian needs of war-torn Europe. At World Relief, we&rsquo;ve welcomed, advocated for, and helped integrate over 400,000 forcibly displaced immigrants to communities all across our nation, including here in Durham and the Triangle since 2007.<p fr-original-style="box-sizing: inherit; max-width: 100%; color: rgb(93, 63, 14); width: auto !important; margin-inline: 0px !important; font-family: Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.25px; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial;" style="box-sizing: inherit; max-width: 100%; color: rgb(93, 63, 14); font-family: Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; letter-spacing: 0.25px; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration-thickness: initial; text-decoration-style: initial; text-decoration-color: initial; width: 100%; margin-inline: 0px !important; margin: 0px; line-height: 1.5;"> ----What is Shrove Tuesday? We&#39;re glad you asked. Shrove Tuesday, Fat Tuesday, Pancake Tuesday&mdash;whatever you call it, it all boils down to one big, delicious feast before Lent begins.<p fr-original-style="box-sizing: inherit; max-width: 100%; color: rgb(93, 63, 14); width: auto !important; margin-inline: 0px !important; font-family: Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration: none; letter-spacing: normal; margin: 0px; line-height: 1.5;" style="box-sizing: inherit; max-width: 100%; color: rgb(93, 63, 14); font-family: Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration: none; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 1.5; width: 100%; margin-inline: 0px !important; margin: 0px;"> The name Shrove Tuesday&nbsp;comes from the old word shriven, meaning to receive absolution. Traditionally, Christians would confess their sins and prepare for the 40-day season of Lent, a time of prayer, reflection, and often giving up indulgences (like sweets, TikTok, or even reality TV).<p fr-original-style="box-sizing: inherit; max-width: 100%; color: rgb(93, 63, 14); width: auto !important; margin-inline: 0px !important; font-family: Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration: none; letter-spacing: normal; margin: 0px; line-height: 1.5;" style="box-sizing: inherit; max-width: 100%; color: rgb(93, 63, 14); font-family: Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration: none; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 1.5; width: 100%; margin-inline: 0px !important; margin: 0px;"> But before the self-denial kicks in, you&rsquo;ve got to use up those tempting ingredients&mdash;eggs, milk, sugar&mdash;and what better way than with a giant stack of pancakes? Thus,&nbsp;Pancake Tuesday&nbsp;was born, and we&rsquo;re more than happy to carry on the tradition.<p fr-original-style="box-sizing: inherit; max-width: 100%; color: rgb(93, 63, 14); width: auto !important; margin-inline: 0px !important; font-family: Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration: none; letter-spacing: normal; margin: 0px; line-height: 1.5;" style="box-sizing: inherit; max-width: 100%; color: rgb(93, 63, 14); font-family: Roboto, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif; font-size: 14px; font-style: normal; font-variant-ligatures: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: 400; orphans: 2; text-align: start; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; white-space: normal; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); text-decoration: none; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: 1.5; width: 100%; margin-inline: 0px !important; margin: 0px;"> So whether you&rsquo;re here for the history, the community, or just the syrup, we&rsquo;re flipping pancakes for a great cause. We can&rsquo;t wait to celebrate with you!
