Facebook: Toronto Friends of Refugees

Toronto Friends of Refugees: So, the Toronto social worker posted a question on her Facebook account, If you could bring a refugee to safety in Toronto, would you?, according to The Star. At their first meeting in late July, they decided to call themselves the Toronto Friends of Refugees and vowed to raise money to sponsor one refugee to Canada a year and When Sara Shahsiah attended a work-related conference in May about refugee resettlement, she was surprised how few young people were involved. About 20 friends all young professionals in their 20s and early 30s responded and wanted to explore what they could do. And they wanted to do it now, not wait until after they had an established career or were ready to retire. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
