San Francisco
My family left Syria 11 months ago after our home was destroyed. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in San Francisco. We're a family of four and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in August. I was a mechanic in Syria, 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: $1,650 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $1,050 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $690 • Language classes and bus passes: $310 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $200 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
