About the Syrian family: Thuria came to Boston four years ago to get treatment for her 6-year old son who was shot during street violence in Syria, and she lives here now with two sons. Her husband and 5 other children live in difficult conditions in Jordan. Together, we can raise the funds to reunite them in Canada under their private sponsorship program.
