Newcastle upon Tyne
My family left Syria 12 months ago after we were targeted for our work. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Newcastle upon Tyne. 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 October. I was a mechanic in Syria, 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 $3,350 goes: • Rent deposit and first month: $1,450 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $1,150 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $360 • Language classes and bus passes: $270 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $120 Thank you so much. - Claire
