Resettlement support for 5 people arriving in Augsburg

Help a family of 4 start their new life in Augsburg: furniture, rent deposit and language classes.

Augsburg
My family left Ethiopia 8 months ago after our home was destroyed. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Augsburg. We're a family of four and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 2 months of rent, and that support ends in November. I was an electrician in Ethiopia, 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 a local church-run settlement group, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $3,800 goes: • Beds, table and basic furniture: $940 • Rent deposit and first month: $2,400 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $460 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Updates from Manal

  1. 10% there. I made the first payment toward beds, table and basic furniture. Thank you.

  2. Update from Augsburg: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 15% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  3. Good news. Because of your gifts ($285 in total) the plan for beds, table and basic furniture is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

    Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Augsburg

      Thank you. If you're in Augsburg I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.

          Hope it all works out, Manal. Shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Bang Khen.

            Best of luck, Manal. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
