Kidus Private Sponsorship Group

Global displacement is at an all-time high, with millions of people worldwide uprooted due to war, political or economic instability, and the impacts of natural disasters. During this extraordinarily challenging time for East African refugees, we have decided to sponsor a refugee newcomer family by helping to provide them a place of safety and security.

In response to this critical need, a group of neighbors and community members came together to welcome East African family to our area. With our collective knowledge and passion, we are confident in our ability to provide the support required for a family and then some, but we need your help.

100% of the received funds will be spent on supporting the family’s start-up and living expenses during their transition to independence in our community. We anticipate that most of it will go toward housing-related costs.

Sponsors are not able to provide receipts for charitable contributions. While you may not receive a tax benefit for your charitable gift, your generosity will greatly benefit the lives of refugee newcomer(s).

If donors have additional questions, their tax advisor or IRS Publication 526 can provide helpful guidance.
