My family left Iraq 10 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 4 months of rent, and that support ends in June. I was a nurse 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 $3,500 goes: • Rent deposit and first month: $1,550 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $940 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $340 • Language classes and bus passes: $430 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $240 Thanks for being kind about this.

  • praying for you, Nolan. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Please keep us posted. Take care.

    • Sending love, Nolan. Hope you get there

      • Thinking of you and your family. It takes guts to ask. Well done. After 11 years in farming I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
