Emmanuel Baptist Refugee Committee hasn't added a story.
Home is where many hearts are: help us make Victoria, British Columbia home to a Syrian refugee family of four!
The community at Emmanuel Baptist Church has just received the profile of the family we will be sponsoring: a beautiful young family of four from Syria. We will be sponsoring this family through the Private Sponsorship program. We do not have any previous connection to the family, as is sometimes the case with private sponsorships, so we look forward to meeting and receiving them. Through this program, we as the sponsorship group finance the family's set up costs, and any reasonable living costs for up to a one year period of time.
The family will be here very soon: likely between January and May 2016. We would like to extend the fundraising reach beyond our community at Emmanuel Baptist, and ask for your help: the help of the broader Victoria community, and beyond! If you are able, please give and help us support this young family well as they make Victoria BC their new home.
If you would like to recieve a tax receipt for your donation, please include your mailing address or email address as you proceed with giving to this campaign.
Thank you greatly for your support!
