My family left Afghanistan 7 months ago after the conflict closed our school and clinic. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Tampa. We're a family of eight and we're safe, but we arrived with very little.
Our resettlement agency has provided 4 months of rent, and that support ends in August.
I was a farmer in Afghanistan, 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 $3,900 goes:
• Rent deposit and first month: $1,500
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $1,350
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $450
• Language classes and bus passes: $360
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $240

You're not alone. Shared it with a few friends. After 26 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything
stay strong. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Mardan.
Keep going, Eva. Your post was clear and honest
Take care, Eva. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
Best of luck, Eva. This could happen to any of us. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless
Hope it all works out. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Contagem.
Thinking of you and your family, Eva. Shared this with my family. My husband and I read this together. All the best.
you're not alone, Eva. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Mississauga but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Tampa.
