The Haddad family fled Syria - help them rebuild in Vancouver
The Haddad family are rebuilding in Vancouver after leaving Syria; your gift pays for housing basics.
🇨🇦 Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada2,958 views
My family left Syria 7 months ago after the war reached our town. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Vancouver. We're a family of six and we're safe, but we arrived with very little.
Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in April.
I was an engineer 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 $2,650 goes:
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $210
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $630
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $450
• Rent deposit and first month: $1,360
Thank you so much.

Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together. Thinking of Vancouver.
So sorry you're going through this. Hope this works out for you. Love from Rohini.
Thanks for sharing this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless
Wishing you the best, Samuel. I hope things turn around soon. Don't give up. Take care!
