Resettlement support for 5 people arriving in Limoges
After fleeing Ukraine, the Petrenko family has arrived in Limoges with little more than their documents. They need help with a deposit, furniture and the first months.

My family left Ukraine 8 months ago after we could no longer live safely. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Limoges. 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 December.
I was a pharmacist 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.
Funds are managed by the Limoges Welcome Table charity, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf.
Where the $1,050 goes:
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $670
• Language classes and bus passes: $230
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $150
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

wishing you peace, Charlotte. Shared it with a few friends
thanks for sharing this. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Take care.
Hope it all works out, Charlotte. Your post was clear and honest. After 16 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Limoges.
Stay strong, Charlotte. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings
