My family left Venezuela 8 months ago after we were targeted for our work. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Brampton. We're a family of four and we're safe, but we arrived with very little.
Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in August.
I was a pharmacist in Venezuela, 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 $3,650 goes:
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $1,450
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $480
• Rent deposit and first month: $1,720
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Keep going, Bo. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Kanpur!
Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Iloilo City so I could bring a meal. All the best.
