My family left Ukraine 7 months ago after the conflict closed our school and clinic. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Brisbane. 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 nurse in Ukraine, 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 $3,350 goes:
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $220
• Language classes and bus passes: $560
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $660
• Rent deposit and first month: $1,910

Sending good thoughts. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 9 people at work.
Sending good thoughts, Anthony. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Seoul but we're thinking of you. Take care.
Praying for you, Anthony. Shared it with a few friends. After 27 years in nursing I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Miami.
Rooting for you, Anthony. Shared this with my family. I hope August is when things finally get easier!
