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

My family left Venezuela 13 months ago after we could no longer live safely. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Metz. We're a family of four and we're safe, but we arrived with very little.
Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in October.
I was a farmer in Venezuela, 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 $2,850 goes:
• Rent deposit and first month: $980
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $810
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $440
• Language classes and bus passes: $390
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $230
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
