Paris
My family left Yemen 13 months ago after our home was destroyed. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Paris. We're a family of six and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in June. I was a nurse in Yemen, 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 $1,450 goes: • Winter clothing and school supplies: $270 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $1,000 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $180 Every share and every dollar helps. - Antoine

        is there anything that isn't money that would help Antoine?

          Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about winter clothing and school supplies, advice is welcome too. It helps to be asked.

      • Hope things get better soon, Antoine. It takes guts to ask. Well done. All the best

        • Stay strong, Antoine. I hope things turn around soon. Please keep us posted. Blessings

            Sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.

            • Hope things get better soon, Antoine. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My husband and I read this together. Take care.
