Saint-Étienne
My family left Afghanistan 6 months ago after the conflict closed our school and clinic. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Saint-Étienne. We're a family of six and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 2 months of rent, and that support ends in March. I was a pharmacist in Afghanistan, 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 the Saint-Étienne Refugee Support Network, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $1,950 goes: • Beds, table and basic furniture: $910 • Language classes and bus passes: $550 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $360 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $130 With deep gratitude, Véronique
