HUMANSERVE is partnering with the Alberta Office of the Mennonite Central Committee to sponsor a family of Syrian refugees for resettlement in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada.
The family of seven (father, mother and 5 boys, ages 5 to 13) currently resides in a refugee camp in the Bekaa Valley, Lebanon. They have been languishing there since 2012, when they fled war-torn Syria. The family occupies a small partitioned tent in a crowded camp with no running water, proper sewage or safe way to provide heat in winter.
In preparation for the family's arrival, HUMANSERVE is collecting funds and in-kind donations to support their housing, furnishing, clothing and miscellaneous needs during their first year in Canada.
