\u201cI am proud of the ongoing work of the GRSI to support the development and implementation of community sponsorship programs around the globe, and the progress we have achieved collectively in helping those in need. I also want to thank Canadians for their enthusiasm in sponsoring refugees. While there is much more to be done, together, we are leading with compassion and doing our part to build a better tomorrow.\u201d \u2014 Hon. Sean Fraser, Minister of Immigration, Refugees and Citizenship Canada<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe community sponsorship programs that are at the core of GRSI\u2019s activities are one way of helping to grow resettlement to the levels it needs to reach. Together with communities around the world who are extending the hand of welcome to refugees, we can help sponsorship make a real contribution to more and better solutions for refugees in desperate need.\u201d \u2014 Gillian Triggs, UNHCR Assistant High Commissioner for Protection<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThis initiative aims to share Canada\u2019s experience and support the adoption of similar models in other countries. The ultimate goal is to increase refugee protection by mobilizing the compassion that exists in communities around the world.\u201d \u2014 Jennifer Bond, Chair of the Global Refugee Sponsorship Initiative and Founder and CEO of the University of Ottawa Refugee Hub-Pathways International<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThere\u2019s a tremendous desire from people around the world to respond to this crisis. The Global Refugee Sponsorship Initiative creates opportunities for citizens to engage with and participate in a humanitarian effort\u2014for the benefit of refugees and for the benefit of the communities that they live in.\u201d \u2014 Gregory A. Maniatis, Director, International Migration Initiative, Open Society Foundations<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\u201cThe refugee crisis can be addressed if we act as global citizens, in collaboration with governments, the private sector and the philanthropic community.\u201d \u2014 Frank Giustra, Founder and President of the Giustra Foundation<\/p>\n\n\n\n
