My family left Syria 13 months ago after the war reached our town. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Nice. We're a family of six and we're safe, but we arrived with very little.
Our resettlement agency has provided 2 months of rent, and that support ends in April.
I was a farmer 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 $4,350 goes:
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $730
• Rent deposit and first month: $2,050
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $1,000
• Language classes and bus passes: $570
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
