Machakos
My family left the Democratic Republic of Congo 7 months ago after we could no longer live safely. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Machakos. We're a family of five and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 4 months of rent, and that support ends in October. I was a shopkeeper in the Democratic Republic of Congo, 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 $600 goes: • Winter clothing and school supplies: $120 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $200 • Rent deposit and first month: $250 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $30 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Chebet
