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 Reading. We're a family of seven and we're safe, but we arrived with very little.
Our resettlement agency has provided 4 months of rent, and that support ends in November.
I was a mechanic 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 $3,450 goes:
• Rent deposit and first month: $1,500
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $810
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $460
• Language classes and bus passes: $480
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $200
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

You're not alone, Gabriella. This could happen to any of us. All the best.
Keep going, Gabriella. Shared it with a few friends. God bless.
shared it with a few friends. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Pietermaritzburg.
