Resettlement support for 9 people arriving in Kassel
The Mukiza family are rebuilding in Kassel after leaving Iraq; your gift pays for housing basics.
🇩🇪 Kassel, Hesse, Germany1,992 views
My family left Iraq 10 months ago after our home was destroyed. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Kassel. We're a family of four and we're safe, but we arrived with very little.
Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in July.
I was an electrician in Iraq, 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 $2,100 goes:
• Language classes and bus passes: $370
• Rent deposit and first month: $1,200
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $400
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $130
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

You're not alone, Sophie. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Sent it to 6 people at work
You're not alone, Sophie. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Kassel.
Sending strength, Sophie. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Santa Fe so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Kassel.
Thinking of you and your family, Sophie. Hope this works out for you. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.
