Gulu
My family left Ukraine 6 months ago after the conflict closed our school and clinic. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Gulu. We're a family of seven and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 4 months of rent, and that support ends in May. I was an engineer in Ukraine, 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 $200 goes: • Beds, table and basic furniture: $120 • Language classes and bus passes: $70 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $10 I hope life is good to you. - Dennis

          Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. beds, table and basic furniture comes first ($120) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid.

      • Sending strength, Dennis. Shared it with a few friends. Blessings.
