How Your Gift Helps

When someone is forced to flee their home from war, violence, or persecution, they remain a refugee for an average of 20+ years. Refugees often remain in limbo, unable to realize their full potential and forced to rely on humanitarian aid for survival. But it doesn’t have to be this way. Since our founding, RefugePoint has helped tens of thousands of refugees find hope through resettlement and other pathways to safety. Our goal is to help refugees move from being dependent on aid to being self-reliant—from living in danger to living in safety. Join our community to deliver lasting solutions for refugees and help them to build secure, new lives.

Abisi

“When I get to Canada, I want to improve my skills to be a full nurse and help fellow refugees who are still in the camps. My hope is that I’m going to a multicultural country and environment, and I’m going to enjoy my freedom, which I did not have before.”

Henry, Daniela, & Prisca

“This opportunity is a big one for us. There are so many people searching for this opportunity. Life was not easy. Working as a hairdresser to provide for my siblings was tough. I would often wonder: What is their future? What is our future? But this resettlement means a lot to us.”

Latifa

“We have faced a lot of problems in this life. If I finish school and get good grades, I can start working on bettering my financial state. School and completing my studies mean everything for me.”

Mangok Family Reunification

“I have lived in the United States for 24 years, but I have never had an immediate family live with me. I have always wished for this — to have my family members in one place. It feels really good to wake up every morning knowing that we’re under the same roof.”

Mangok

“I will become a light to my family, community, and everyone. If I tell you what the Economic Mobility Pathway means, it means life to us.”

Mark

Self-Reliance

“I am content with what I have. I do not seek assistance from other people. I have a plan to expand this work by hiring people to work under me.”

“Tonight is the first night I will sleep peacefully in Canada.”

Self Reliance - Urban Refugee Protection

“In French they say, ‘I am ‘fière’ (proud) of my life now. I’m no longer seeking assistance, I’m confident in my business and now I have my own money… My life has really changed and I’m very grateful to RefugePoint and all the staff who helped me along the way.”

“Putting a name to the endless numbers we read about in the news and in the media is life-changing. To see the faces of the [refugees] and the team that supports them brings to life the intricate, compassionate, and complex workings of RefugePoint... With RefugePoint so many no longer have to risk their lives to find sanctuary and safety. As long as our Foundation is around we will continue to support Sasha and his team.”
