Group Admins

We are sponsoring refugees families to come to Canada. We're using this Giving Group to make donating to this cause easier.
**NOTE: Monthly Donations are currently paused. The Gherkins have reached our goals for our current sponsorship and will re-open for donations once a new sponsorship starts**

The Group's Purpose

There continues to be an overwhelming number of individuals and families seeking refuge from violence in their home countries. To aid this distressed population, we have formed a Sponsorship Group to work with the Canadian government to bring forcibly displaced refugees families to Canada. Our group will help support the family, emotionally, physically and financially, after they arrive in Canada.

How to Help

We will be needing to raise funds to support each families living expenses. Check out our activities via the Gherkins-Gordon-Head-Refugee-Sponsorship-Constituent-Group Facebook group: [https://www.facebook.com/Gherkins-Gordon-Head-Refugee-Sponsorship-Constituent-Group-1686745714903147/?fref=nf].

About the Organizers

The GHRSCG (or Gerkins) is a secular group that has organized with Saint Dunstan's Anglican Church in Victoria BC. We came together as we all feel compelled to help. St. Dunstan's has agreed to provide the background infrastructure we need to conduct charitable fundraising and the Anglican Diocese of Victoria is acting as our Sponsorship Agreement Holder.
