Resettlement support for 9 people arriving in Jacksonville
After fleeing Ethiopia, the Tesfaye family has arrived in Jacksonville with little more than their documents. They need help with a deposit, furniture and the first months.
Updates from Michael
Thank you all. We're at 67% now ($1,404). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward beds, table and basic furniture.
We're at 31% thanks to 18 of you. I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. More news soon.

sending good thoughts, Michael. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Bursa.
Good luck, Michael. Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Aurangabad but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Jacksonville.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Michael!
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. phone and internet for school and job search comes first ($160) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks, that means a lot.
Best of luck. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Jacksonville!
praying for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best
Thinking of you, Michael. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
