My family left Somalia 14 months ago after the conflict closed our school and clinic. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Alcalá de Henares. We're a family of eight 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 an engineer in Somalia, 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 Alcalá de Henares Welcome Table charity, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf.
Where the $1,800 goes:
• Language classes and bus passes: $200
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $90
• Rent deposit and first month: $1,510
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Hope this works out for you. Love from Gliwice.
Hang in there. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Pittsburgh.
Looking forward to the next update. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Manchester.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 16 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Dhaka.
sending good thoughts, Beatriz. This could happen to any of us. Take care.
So sorry you're going through this, Beatriz. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Istanbul this morning. All the best.
