This study explores a unique case of charitable giving that goes beyond conventional monetary donations, focusing on an elderly American couple who voluntarily hosted an Afghan refugee family in their home following the U.S. military withdrawal from Afghanistan. Through four in-depth interviews with the couple, the research investigates their motivations, the rules and arrangements established for cohabitation, the dynamics of intercultural relationships, and the long-term aspirations shared by both families. The findings reveal that empathy derived from personal experiences, clear agreements on daily living, and mutual respect played crucial roles in sustaining this cross-cultural household. Moreover, the couple’s support extended beyond housing to include education, financial mentoring, and emotional care, enabling the refugee family to pursue independence and social integration. The study highlights that refugee settlement is not only a policy issue but also a community and individual endeavor. Drawing implications for Korea, the case demonstrates the potential of intergenerational housing and the utilization of vacant homes in addressing structural challenges such as aging, rural depopulation, and youth housing insecurity. From a management perspective, the case illustrates how structured arrangements, resource sharing, and mutual learning can generate social value and contribute to sustainable refugee integration. Ultimately, this research argues that refugee acceptance should be understood as a reciprocal process of hospitality and growth, offering valuable lessons for policymakers, local communities, and civil society actors in Korea and beyond.
