Scranton
My family left Ukraine 6 months ago after the war reached our town. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Scranton. We're a family of five and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 4 months of rent, and that support ends in May. I was an electrician in Ukraine, 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 $3,300 goes: • Rent deposit and first month: $1,550 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $750 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $490 • Language classes and bus passes: $360 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $150 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Annabelle

        Best of luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Buenos Aires but we're thinking of you. Blessings
