The Hashemi family fled Somalia - help them rebuild in Charlotte

My family left Somalia 7 months ago after we could no longer live safely. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Charlotte. 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 mechanic in Somalia, 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 Charlotte Refugee Support Network, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $3,550 goes: • Rent deposit and first month: $1,500 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $670 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $470 • Language classes and bus passes: $750 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $160 Thanks for reading all this.
