Resettlement support for 7 people arriving in Kampala
Help a family of 7 start their new life in Kampala: furniture, rent deposit and language classes.
🇺🇬 Kampala, Central Region, Uganda1,412 views
My family left Somalia 12 months ago after our home was destroyed. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Kampala. We're a family of six 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 an electrician 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.
All purchases will be documented and photos shared (with the family's consent).
Where the $500 goes:
• Rent deposit and first month: $300
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $95
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $35
• Language classes and bus passes: $55
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $15
If you're reading this, thank you.

This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Allentown this morning.
