Nottingham
My family left Yemen 12 months ago after we could no longer live safely. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Nottingham. 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 February. I was a farmer in Yemen, 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 $3,900 goes: • Rent deposit and first month: $2,400 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $560 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $710 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $230 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Sophia

  • Hang in there, Sophia. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Nottingham.

      Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Nagpur donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.

      • So sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Lagos.

        • keep going, Sophia. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes!
