Anaheim
My family left Eritrea 12 months ago after the war reached our town. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Anaheim. We're a family of five and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 2 months of rent, and that support ends in April. I was a teacher in Eritrea, 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 Anaheim Refugee Support Network, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $950 goes: • Winter clothing and school supplies: $330 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $260 • Language classes and bus passes: $360 If you're reading this, thank you.
