Resettlement support for 6 people arriving in Cox's Bazar

After fleeing Afghanistan, the Bakr family has arrived in Cox's Bazar with little more than their documents. They need help with a deposit, furniture and the first months.

Cox's Bazar
My family left Afghanistan 9 months ago after we could no longer live safely. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Cox's Bazar. We're a family of five and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 2 months of rent, and that support ends in August. 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 $500 goes: • Rent deposit and first month: $210 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $90 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $80 • Language classes and bus passes: $70 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $50 If you're reading this, thank you.

    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Shapla.

    • Shapla Mousumi HaqueOwnerAnswer

      Rent deposit and first month is $210 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Thanks for looking so closely.

        Hang in there, Shapla. Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Augsburg so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Cox's Bazar.
