Piraeus
My family left Yemen 13 months ago after we were targeted for our work. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Piraeus. We're a family of eight and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 4 months of rent, and that support ends in November. I was a shopkeeper in Yemen, 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 $1,950 goes: • Beds, table and basic furniture: $680 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $110 • Rent deposit and first month: $930 • Language classes and bus passes: $230 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Panagiota

    Rooting for you. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Québec!

      you're not alone, Panagiota. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Wish I lived closer to Mwanza so I could bring a meal. Take care

        Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Kathmandu so I could bring a meal. Blessings
