Chandler
My family left Sudan 8 months ago after the war reached our town. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Chandler. 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 February. I was a mechanic in Sudan, 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 a local church-run settlement group, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $3,950 goes: โ€ข Rent deposit and first month: $2,050 โ€ข Beds, table and basic furniture: $640 โ€ข Winter clothing and school supplies: $570 โ€ข Language classes and bus passes: $400 โ€ข Phone and internet for school and job search: $290 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Hudson
