Sponsor Afghan Refugees

Make a difference for Afghan refugees. Become a sponsor and provide a path to safety today.

Since 2021, Americans in every corner of the country have sponsored newcomers and helped them find safety in the United States. The veteran community has been instrumental in helping Afghan allies reach safety. Now, veterans who want to ensure the safety of friends and allies in Afghanistan have the power to help Afghans rebuild their lives in the United States through the Welcome Corps, a new sponsorship pathway.

Sponsors are a bridge to safety and support newcomers as neighbors, friends, and trusted teammates.

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

“Even though we have left Afghanistan and the outcome there is not what we wanted, we still have the ability to keep our promise [through sponsorship] and help people restart their lives in the U.S. and become new Americans.”
Mariah Smith, Army Veteran, No One Left Behind
"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, a Welcome.US Sponsor
