Resettlement support for 7 people arriving in Fresno

My family left Somalia 9 months ago after our home was destroyed. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Fresno. 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 October. I was a mechanic 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 Fresno Welcome Table charity, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $1,250 goes: • Phone and internet for school and job search: $190 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $510 • Language classes and bus passes: $550 Thanks for reading all this.
