Passionately Helping Our Sponsored Families Through the Special Donation Programs.

Making sponsored refugee families feel welcome and settled in their new life in Canada is crucial for their successful integration and long-term well-being. Since they’ve been through a lot, it’s important to approach their resettlement with empathy, patience, and a deep understanding of their unique needs. Here’s how you can support them in feeling at ease and building a sense of belonging:
Prepare a Welcome Backets
Provide a Welcome Basket: Consider putting together and donating to us a welcome basket with essential items like toiletries, non-perishable food, local maps, community guides, and a list of local services they may need.
Give Beyond Money
Donate Household Items: Many refugee families arrive with little to no personal belongings. Consider donating gently used furniture, kitchenware, clothing, toys, and other household essentials.
Donate Your Skills
We are encouraging professionals in the community to donate their services. For instance, an accountant could offer financial literacy workshops, or a dentist could provide free checkups.
Become a Monthly Donor
Become a monthly donor and provide the steady funding that sustains our vital programs, expands our reach, and changes lives year-round. Join us in shaping a brighter future. Every contribution counts.
