Lahore
My family left Iraq 14 months ago after we were targeted for our work. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Lahore. We're a family of five and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in October. I was a mechanic in Iraq, 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 Lahore Refugee Support Network, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $350 goes: • Phone and internet for school and job search: $35 • Language classes and bus passes: $75 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $45 • Rent deposit and first month: $195 Thank you so much. - Danish
