Dear Residents,
I would like to provide you with information on a local group formed in the Guildwood Community - GRACE, to help organize for the Syrian Refugee initiative. Remember contribution comes in many forms. I encourage you to read through the material to determine if you can help with the effort.
Guildwood Refugee Action Committee, known as GRACE, is a community-based, non-denominational group of concerned and compassionate friends and neighbours who have come together to sponsor a Syrian refugee family.
GRACE is in planning stages, and to help that planning they are asking residents of Ward 43 and the riding of Scarborough Guildwood, to let them know if you have accommodation that you would be willing to offer on either a short-term basis or a long-term basis. If you have a nanny suite, an available apartment or house, or even a room to offer, please let them know. All information provided is private and will not be shared without your permission.
Please click on this link to complete their survey: GRACE Accommodation Survey
For further information on GRACE, please see visit Facebook their Website Here or contact Allison Murray GRACE Project Leader at gracinformation@gmail.com
