Saima Jamal: Group and Andrea Richards

saima jamal: Volunteers have been taking on donations themselves in their homes or garages it can get really overwhelming, said Andrea Richards, who helped the group find the much-needed storage space, according to Metro News. Through her husband, Richards knew Jim Estill, a man from Guelph, Ont. who sponsored 50 Syrian families. This is the best news that's happened to us in a long time, said Saima Jamal, co-founder of the SRSG. The group has functioned without a warehouse since April 2016. Jennifer Friesen/For Metro Volunteer Kimberley Tubrett sweeps the floor in the new warehouse. They were able to track down not one, but two warehouses for the group to utilize for the next five months completely free of charge. After hearing the Syrian Refugee Support Group of Calgary needed a storage space, Richards asked Estill if he knew anyone who could help. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
