The Hashemi family fled Sudan - help them rebuild in Seattle
The Hashemi family are rebuilding in Seattle after leaving Sudan; your gift pays for housing basics.
🇺🇸 Seattle, Washington, United States2,121 views
My family left Sudan 8 months ago after the conflict closed our school and clinic. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Seattle. 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 October.
I was a farmer in Sudan, 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 $1,600 goes:
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $115
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $1,050
• Language classes and bus passes: $435
Every share and every dollar helps.

Sending strength. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Pune.
