Louisville
My family left Sudan 13 months ago after we could no longer live safely. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Louisville. We're a family of six 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 shopkeeper 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 Louisville Welcome Table charity, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $3,950 goes: • Winter clothing and school supplies: $630 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $650 • Rent deposit and first month: $2,100 • Language classes and bus passes: $570 Thank you so much.

    Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 9 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.

    • Lukas Patrick Lange

      best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
