Resettlement support for 4 people arriving in Embakasi
After fleeing Iraq, the Hosseini family has arrived in Embakasi with little more than their documents. They need help with a deposit, furniture and the first months.

My family left Iraq 12 months ago after the conflict closed our school and clinic. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Embakasi. We're a family of five 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 Iraq, 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 $550 goes:
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $80
• Rent deposit and first month: $220
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $250
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Edinburgh so I could bring a meal. Take care.
Take care, Mwanaisha. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Please keep us posted. All the best
Best of luck, Mwanaisha. Your post was clear and honest. I hope August is when things finally get easier.
This could happen to any of us. Don't give up. Greetings from Campinas
Good luck, Mwanaisha. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Bangkok donated after I showed her your page
