The Welcome Connect platform opens its doors every month to search for sponsors in the United States. What day are you open in March?
Welcome Connect is a space where people seeking security (also called beneficiaries) can find a sponsor in the United States. Additionally, potential sponsors can connect with newcomers seeking shelter.
The page opens each month for registration and accepts beneficiaries depending on the number of sponsors already signed and approved.
On February 20, the Welcome US initiative asked Americans to come forward: “Now, more than ever, there is an urgent need for Americans to become sponsors. Sponsorship is one of the few safe ways for Cubans, Haitians, Nicaraguans, Ukrainians and Venezuelans to find refuge in the United States.”
To ensure that both sponsors and beneficiaries can establish successful connections, Welcome Connect registration is ongoing, but limited and scheduled.
What day does Welcome Connect open in March 2024?
The registration page opens for beneficiary registrations on the third Tuesday of each month.
Therefore, the most immediate dates are March 19, April 16 and May 21. Of course, you should know that once the registration limit for a program is reached, the page will be paused once more until the next month. You should be sure to check this page on the designated day of each month for the opportunity to register for Welcome Connect.
What time does registration open for Welcome Connect?
Registration will open at 3 PM Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), which means:
– If you are in Nicaragua, registration will open at 9 am
– If you are in Haiti or Cuba, registration will open at 11 am
– If you are in Venezuela, registration will open at 11 am

How does Welcome Connect work?
In the platform, you will create a profile with basic information regarding yourself. Once you’ve completed the profile, recipients will be able to view potential sponsors and select up to 7 to send a message to. A sponsor will not be able to see the other person’s profile until they have sent them a message.
Are you looking for a sponsor? Sign up for Welcome Connect on the third Tuesday in March (March 19), April (April 16), or May (May 21). Good luck!
