A fresh start in Amiens: help the Mukiza family resettle

Help a family of 3 start their new life in Amiens: furniture, rent deposit and language classes.

Anywhere in the world4,148 views
My family left Iraq 10 months ago after our home was destroyed. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Amiens. We're a family of five and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 2 months of rent, and that support ends in August. I was a pharmacist in Iraq, and I'm studying the language every evening. Our daughter and son have started school and are doing well. We want nothing more than to be self-sufficient. This fund will help us through the first six months. All purchases will be documented and photos shared (with the family's consent). Where the $2,900 goes: • Rent deposit and first month: $1,050 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $1,050 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $420 • Language classes and bus passes: $380 Thanks for being kind about this.
