In today’s episode we'll welcome back Erin Howe, our REACTsponsors Program Director, and introduce you to Cynthia Rapp Sandhu, one our REACTsponsors.

Cynthia Rapp Sandhu lives in Farmington, New Mexico.  She holds a Master of Theological Studies degree from Boston University with an emphasis on the role of religion and identity in conflict and peacebuilding.  After graduate school, Cynthia briefly worked abroad and then returned to Boston to work in higher education in international affairs and Middle East studies.  In 2010 she moved to New Mexico, and for the past eleven years, she has taught courses on history and ethics at San Juan College.  She also oversaw the Global Studies Program at San Juan College for three years.  She has participated in summer faculty research programs at the University of Oxford, Indiana University, and Harvard University.  Cynthia enjoys traveling and spending time with her husband and two young daughters.

Erin and Cynthia are here to talk about Sponsorship, and Cynthia’s experience preparing for Sponsor Circle Program for Afghans and ultimately participating in Uniting for Ukraine program. They’ll go over the highs and lows of sponsoring, discuss the ONE thing they wish people knew about sponsorship and then end with a favorite memory.

REACT DC currently has nearly 14+ Ukrainian Sponsor Circles, with ongoing efforts to recruit & hand-match 100 circles to Ukrainians in need by the end of 2022. With a best in class in class Sponsorship Program & a track record of 60+ past & present Sponsor Circles since January 2022, REACTsponsors will be by your side throughout the sponsorship experience.
