- A group opportunity. Invite your friends.
Refugee Co-Sponsorship is there you partner with Bethany Christian Services to assist one of their refugee families for 6-8 months from their arrival while acclimating to life in the U.S. These are usually groups of 5-10 people with 1 or 2 individuals as the primary group leader(s). During that time, you may be able to welcome a family at the airport, assist with transportation to medical appointments, collected needed material items, English tutoring, be a community guide, and simply build a friendship with them. Bethany provides training and support before and throughout this rewarding experience.
