While people often feel powerless to help the vast number of refugees fleeing war, famine and persecution, one group of local people from Naas decided to do something about it.
Through a Government programme, they volunteered to help a Syrian family come to Ireland and build a new life in Naas.
The Naas Community Sponsorship Group (NCSG) was set up under the Community Sponsorship Programme Ireland, in initiative of the Government of Ireland.
In traditional refugee resettlement models, the state provides resettlement and integration services directly to refugees.
