A fresh start in Entebbe: help the Shevchenko family resettle
Help a family of 6 start their new life in Entebbe: furniture, rent deposit and language classes.
🇺🇬 Entebbe, Central Region, Uganda509 views
My family left Eritrea 7 months ago after the conflict closed our school and clinic. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Entebbe. 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 December.
I was a mechanic in Eritrea, 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.
Funds are managed by a local church-run settlement group, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf.
Where the $300 goes:
• Language classes and bus passes: $80
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $165
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $55
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
