    Ongoing conflicts around the World have triggered the worst ever humanitarian crisis. At the end of 2015, there were more than 63 million people forcibly displaced by war or persecution worldwide. Of those, more than 21 million are refugees (UNHCR.)
    ​
    "Refugees may flee their homes with few belongings, but these farmers, nurses, teachers, and business owners, always carry three valuable things with them: knowledge, skills, and experience. We recognize the enormous potential of refugees to contribute to local economies, wherever they settle and their ardent desire to become self-reliant. That's why we work with refugees to help revive their livelihoods and help develop new marketable skills." (UNHCR Canada)
    ​
    "Work is the only thing that gives substance to life" (Albert Einstein, a refugee)
    ​
    In September of 2016 we welcomed a family to Kimberley. You can learn more about the family here.
     
    The KRRG's long term goal is to provide support to one or two families. Many local residents are asking how they can continue to help.
    ​
    You can help make a difference in their lives in a number of different ways – small and large. Get involved!

    Kimberley Refugee Resettlement Group

    Greetings to our membership,

    Our core executive group met on December 6th, 2018 to determine the future direction of our group. We received very few responses to the email sent to members in October. In addition, the number of active members is presently too small to consider bringing another refugee family to our community.

    The Kimberley Refugee Resettlement Group’s mission is to help persecuted people from around the world esc...
