What charities or organizations financially support refugees?

im just trying to wrap my head around this whole idea of Syrian refugees coming to America. I disagree with it altogether at this time, but want to know once a refugee gets here, how do they survive? Who pays for travel to their respective drop off place? Does some charity put them up in housing with furniture, food, and necessities until they can self support? Meanwhile, the homeless Veteran stays under the overpass and many American families live on the brink of eviction and homelessness everyday?

Many organizations that are funded through a mix of federal grants & charitable giving. They help find employment, keep the guys going to work, teach women (that are often still in the stay at home kind of culture) how to operate a household here with everything available, offer English and remedial professional training, etc.

There are plenty of programs to help these people out if they really wanted to utilize them.

The federal government has programs for everyone including homeless and veterans. Many charities are involved and it is not necessarily a bad thing. People immigrate to this country from all over the globe on a daily basis and get the same kind of help. The charities helping are not the ones vetting the immigrants. And most have been on waiting lists for several years.
I don't knee jerk to this because I believe the ones this country should be worried about are the ones already here and many of whom were born and raised here.

You read too many Facebook articles

You, as an American taxpayer are footing quite a bit of that bill. Now, go feel good about yourself, you do-gooder, you...

Catholic, Baptist, Lutheran, Methodist, et al..., see all the united, big money 'churches', they're all about the dollar. Hope they enjoy it before it's worthless, and it won't be long.

You assume too much. I'm rarely on FB and it's a legitimate question I'm trying to understand. If you have something of value to contribute, please do; or was it just an effort to increase your post count?

I dont understand how this refugee issue has some how created this weird "concern" for veterans and other citizens. There are programs for citizens here, but its a lot deeper than just "who is helping". Stop pretending like any of you heartless bastards care about anyone outside of your circle.
