This year’s pandemic has forced us all to experience how lives can be changed by events beyond our control. We can only begin to relate, yet this is what refugees
face — and even more — every day. Your involvement with AURA ensures refugees
can start again and rebuild their lives in Canada.
Throughout the turbulence of 2020 we have been truly moved by the dedication of our refugee sponsors, volunteers, and the generosity of the entire AURA community. Sponsors have continued to introduce refugee newcomers to Canada during ever-changing COVID-19 restrictions. Volunteers have found ways to adapt and make meaningful contributions remotely. The generosity of our donors through: Plantables, World Refugee Day at home, and the 2020 Ride for Refuge has been unwavering.
During a time when so many charities have struggled, AURA maximized refugee case submissions and continued supporting sponsors and recent arrivals. This would not have been possible without your tireless efforts and generous support.
We look forward to 2021 and are incredibly thankful for the entire AURA community.
