My family left the Democratic Republic of Congo 7 months ago after we were targeted for our work. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Nashville. We're a family of four and we're safe, but we arrived with very little.
Our resettlement agency has provided 2 months of rent, and that support ends in June.
I was a shopkeeper in the Democratic Republic of Congo, 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 $2,750 goes:
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $550
• Rent deposit and first month: $1,500
• Language classes and bus passes: $700
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
