The Kentucky Welcome Sponsorship Program invites groups to make a difference in a refugee family’s life by assisting them with various needs and being a mentor to the family. Our goal, through building relationships, is to encourage early self-sufficiency. Through this program, your group will assist with the apartment set up and grocery shopping, welcome the refugee family at the airport and mentor them for three months. You will assist with English tutoring, taking them around the city and helping them get to know their new Kentucky home.
