30 days for refugees – Day 19

Lots of the examples and stories shared over the past 20 days have been from Canada, and that’s for a very good reason. Canada has had a private refugee sponsorship programme that has existed since the 1970s, and has resettled tens of thousands of refugees through private sponsorship

Here is a video with Canadian sponsors, and refugees, talking about the scheme and why it is so important.

Does this sound like something you would like to be part of?
