A fresh start in Faisalabad: help the Yusuf family resettle
After fleeing Yemen, the Yusuf family has arrived in Faisalabad with little more than their documents. They need help with a deposit, furniture and the first months.

My family left Yemen 8 months ago after we were targeted for our work. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Faisalabad. We're a family of seven and we're safe, but we arrived with very little.
Our resettlement agency has provided 2 months of rent, and that support ends in November.
I was an engineer in Yemen, 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 the Faisalabad Welcome Table charity, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf.
Where the $450 goes:
• Rent deposit and first month: $175
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $150
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $75
• Language classes and bus passes: $45
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $5
Every share and every dollar helps.

Best of luck, Saad. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Blessings.
sending good thoughts, Saad. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
You're not alone, Saad. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from New Delhi
Hang in there. This could happen to any of us. Love from Nuremberg!
Wishing you the best, Saad. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Cox's Bazar this morning
