Resettlement support for 5 people arriving in Kilkenny
The Okonkwo family are rebuilding in Kilkenny after leaving Ukraine; your gift pays for housing basics.
🇮🇪 Kilkenny, Leinster, Ireland811 views
My family left Ukraine 9 months ago after the war reached our town. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Kilkenny. We're a family of four and we're safe, but we arrived with very little.
Our resettlement agency has provided 4 months of rent, and that support ends in September.
I was a teacher in Ukraine, 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 $3,600 goes:
• Rent deposit and first month: $2,400
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $1,050
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $150
With deep gratitude,
Tadhg

Hope it all works out. Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Coventry so I could bring a meal.
