San Francisco
My family left Yemen 6 months ago after we were targeted for our work. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in San Francisco. We're a family of five 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 an electrician in Yemen, 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 San Francisco Refugee Support Network, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $1,950 goes: • Beds, table and basic furniture: $990 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $320 • Language classes and bus passes: $640 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Brandon
