Who We Are
We are a community group of 13 members and still growing. We started in May 2021 brought together with a common goal, to share our city with those in need of a place to call home. We come from a wide range of experiences, the arts, legal, education, health care and social work.
What is Refugee Sponsorship
Refugee Sponsorship is a Canadian Government program, which allows local communities to sponsor a refugee family to live in their local area. It enables local communities to take an active role in supporting a refugee family during their first year of resettlement in Canada. qRS is moving forward with the 'blended visa program', with this program the government pays for half the resettlement costs!!
What are we doing?
As part of our commitment to resettlement we are raising a minimum of $26000. This goes towards: - supporting a family with affordable housing and food - provide emotional and social support
