The Shevchenko family are rebuilding in Çankaya after leaving Iraq; your gift pays for housing basics.
🇹🇷 Çankaya, Ankara, Türkiye1,381 views
My family left Iraq 12 months ago after the war reached our town. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Çankaya. 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 August.
I was a shopkeeper 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.
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 $800 goes:
• Rent deposit and first month: $610
• Language classes and bus passes: $70
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $120
