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

My family left Sudan 14 months ago after our home was destroyed. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Rawalpindi. We're a family of seven and we're safe, but we arrived with very little.
Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in September.
I was a pharmacist in Sudan, 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 Rawalpindi Refugee Support Network, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf.
Where the $510 goes:
• Rent deposit and first month: $270
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $110
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $75
• Language classes and bus passes: $50
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $5
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.
