A fresh start in London: help the Mukiza family resettle

After fleeing Ukraine, the Mukiza family has arrived in London with little more than their documents. They need help with a deposit, furniture and the first months.

London
My family left Ukraine 7 months ago after the war reached our town. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in London. We're a family of seven and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in December. 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. 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 $2,700 goes: • Rent deposit and first month: $1,100 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $600 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $480 • Language classes and bus passes: $310 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $210 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
