San Sebastián
My family left Yemen 7 months ago after the war reached our town. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in San Sebastián. We're a family of seven and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in April. 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 $1,950 goes: • Beds, table and basic furniture: $880 • Rent deposit and first month: $910 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $160 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Daniela
