Cologne

My family left Afghanistan 6 months ago after our home was destroyed. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Cologne. We're a family of six and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in July. I was a farmer in Afghanistan, 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 $2,700 goes: • Rent deposit and first month: $1,800 • Language classes and bus passes: $450 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $90 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $360 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Theo

Updates from Theo

Good news. Because of your gifts ($275 in total) the plan for phone and internet for school and job search is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Sending good thoughts, Theo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Cape Coast

Thinking of you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Toulon.

hope it all works out. This could happen to any of us. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
