Multan
My family left Somalia 9 months ago after we could no longer live safely. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Multan. We're a family of eight and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in November. I was a nurse in Somalia, 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 the Multan Welcome Table charity, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $600 goes: • Rent deposit and first month: $240 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $185 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $85 • Language classes and bus passes: $65 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $25 Every share and every dollar helps. - Aleena

  • So sorry you're going through this, Aleena. Shared this with my family

    • stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Iloilo City

        Praying for you, Aleena. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best

        • Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Lexington but we're thinking of you.

          • Take care, Aleena. Your post was clear and honest. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Tel Aviv
