Be A Welcomer

More than 100 million people worldwide have been forced to flee their homes due to war or persecution. You can make it possible for families to find safety in the U.S.

In the last year, over 200,000 Americans from across the country sponsored newcomers and helped them find safety in the United States. Sponsors are guides, neighbors, friends, and cheerleaders for newly arriving families seeking to rebuild their lives.

Anyone can be a sponsor, including you! Sign up below to get started.

"As the son of a refugee, I am inspired by the Welcome.US mission. ... By signing up as a sponsor, you can give immigrants a chance to rebuild their lives and enrich your own."
Nicholas Kristof, Columnist for the New York Times and two-time Pulitzer Prize Winner
What’s been wonderful about this experience is the number of people who’ve just wanted to join us, to participate, to help out…we’ve suddenly got this extended, wonderful community. It’s a great part of America, something that for many became rare - that sense of community.
Elizabeth, a Welcome.US Sponsor
"If people like myself who live in comfort and security don’t try to help, then ultimately evil wins, and that’s unacceptable."
Bon Bennett, Sponsor
