United Neighbours Syrian Refugee Support
The Alaalyan family arrived safely to Canada in December 2016. They were welcomed
into the home of a family in the Hillcrest/Wychwood neighbourhood as temporary housing
as they got settled. After a dedicated and extensive search,
permanent housing was secured for the Alaalyans in April 2017.
​
United Neighbours is now in the process of sponsoring a second Syrian family,
who are in the final stages of preparing to come to Canada!
We are asking you, our friends and neighbours, to help find an apartment or living space for the newcomers’ first year in Canada, and possibly beyond. We are looking for:
· Short-term accommodation (for while they get settled, only a couple of weeks)
· Longer-term accommodation (for them to live the rest of the year, and hopefully after)
With a family of eight individuals, including very young children, we are looking
for a multiple bedroom apartment, with reasonable access to transit. As we are
based in the Regal Heights/Hillcrest area, we are focusing our search
on the city of Toronto. Our general criteria are:
· 3 bedroom apartment
(or as low as a large 2 bedroom for short-term housing only)
· Good access to transit
· $2500/month (our upper limit) or under
If you think that you may know of a place that might work, please send
an email to our housing committee at: michael.hudecki@gmail.com.
Get the word out! Please send this along to anyone you know
who might be able to help. Thank you very much for your help in this process –
the continued generosity of our community is inspiring. We look forward to working
with you as we accomplish this task and move towards a successful settlement.
