Trinity Anglican Church - Ottawa South Committee For Refugee Support

Raise money for Trinity Anglican Church - Ottawa South Committee For Refugee Support

The Ottawa South Committee for Refugee Sponsorship (OSCRS) is a community group that first met in March 2015 in response to the urgent situation faced Syrian and Iraqi refugees. OSCRS collaborates closely with Trinity Anglican Church in Old Ottawa South, whose missional work includes refugee sponsorship and support. The church provides administrative support for sponsorship activities as well as meeting space, and the church's volunteers engage alongside OSCRS volunteers in on-the-ground settlement work both before and after newcomers arrive. The first family of six Syrian refugees sponsored by the group arrived in late 2015. The group has now overseen the arrival of three Syrian refugee families, a Syrian refugee with his two teenage brothers, and young family of three Kurds from Northern Iraq. Currently, the group looks forward to welcoming a family of four Syrian refugees in February and it has started on the sponsorship of a family of six from Congo, who are now refugees in South Africa. All donations to support refugee sponsorship work by the collaboration of OSCRS and Trinity Anglican Church will be eligible for a charitable receipt.
