Welcoming Syrian Refugees to Ontario
SPARK is proud to play a role in welcoming refugees from the Syrian conflict to Ontario. There are many ways you can help give refugee families a warm welcome and a better life.

If you have an idea about helping and want to share it, you can search SPARK for organizations that work with refugees impacted by the Syrian conflict and contact them directly to discuss your idea.
If you are a lawyer or educator who wants to volunteer your time and expertise, please visit the Ontario government's website.
Donate and Sponsor
For more information about how to donate money, toys, clothing, furniture or housing OR to sponsor a family in need, visit the Ontario government's website .
