Visionary Martial Arts is now proud to support the UNHCR.
The background of the organisation is as follows:
"The Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees was established on December 14, 1950 by the United Nations General Assembly. The agency is mandated to lead and co-ordinate international action to protect refugees and resolve refugee problems worldwide. Its primary purpose is to safeguard the rights and well-being of refugees. It strives to ensure that everyone can exercise the right to seek asylum and find safe refuge in another State, with the option to return home voluntarily, integrate locally or to resettle in a third country. It also has a mandate to help stateless people."
As our club has grown (and is now reaching our limit) new registrations will soon close. Because we have reached this point, the aim was always to support a worthy agency and let the students know where some of their fees were going to.

It is a huge job.
Right now, not everyone is safe.
But, this is just a small part that we can play in the overall solution.
If everyone did what they can do,
it would make a difference.
