I can barely afford to sponsor myself 😂 grocery prices are out of control these days. But if this helps refugees find a safe place to put their life together then I hope they find all the help they can get.
I sponsored a immigrant and now we have three children. >

My grandfather sponsored an immigrant he met in WWII and now I’m stuck here picking up dog shit in the back yard. >

In the early 90s, two people had unprotected sex. Now I have to go to work every day for the next 40 years >

The ciiiiircle of liiiiiife >

A church in my home town did this for an Afghan refugee and his mother. Dude was a mechanical engineer, but didn't understand how to get an apartment, drivers license, ect. So they helped him find an apartment, navigate the cultural differences, and basically set up his life. Now he makes more money than he ever dreamed of and his mother works at the local soup kitchen. I have rarely met someone who is as excited about the towns community, helping other people, or the prospect of being an American citizen. >

Good, now everyone can put up or shut up. >
