A fresh start in Mississauga: help the Mukiza family resettle

The Mukiza family are rebuilding in Mississauga after leaving Ukraine; your gift pays for housing basics.

Mississauga
My family left Ukraine 8 months ago after the war reached our town. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Mississauga. We're a family of six and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 4 months of rent, and that support ends in November. I was a mechanic 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. All purchases will be documented and photos shared (with the family's consent). Where the $4,350 goes: • Beds, table and basic furniture: $930 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $210 • Rent deposit and first month: $2,550 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $660 With deep gratitude, Quinn

Updates from Quinn

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($2,040 in total) I made the first payment toward rent deposit and first month. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

    Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Sent it to 18 people at work. Thinking of Mississauga.

    • Kyung-soo Sang-hoon Kwon

      So sorry you're going through this, Quinn. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Addis Ababa!

      • Miguel H. Salvador
