Resettlement support for 7 people arriving in Augusta

After fleeing Venezuela, the Abdi family has arrived in Augusta with little more than their documents. They need help with a deposit, furniture and the first months.

Augusta
My family left Venezuela 6 months ago after we could no longer live safely. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Augusta. We're a family of seven 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 pharmacist in Venezuela, 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 $2,350 goes: • Language classes and bus passes: $450 • Rent deposit and first month: $1,750 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $150 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

    is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Trung.

    • Trung Đạt QuachOwnerAnswerPhoto verified

      Sure. The biggest one is language classes and bus passes, $450. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Happy to explain more.

  • your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.

    • Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Sakai.

      • Hope this works out for you. After 10 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best.
