Kassel
My family left Ukraine 10 months ago after the war reached our town. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Kassel. We're a family of four and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 3 months of rent, and that support ends in October. I was an engineer in Ukraine, 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 Kassel Welcome Table charity, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $3,500 goes: • Language classes and bus passes: $410 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $1,200 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $630 • Rent deposit and first month: $1,260 I hope life is good to you.

Updates from Christina

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($1,415 in total) the plan for rent deposit and first month is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Update from Kassel: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 14% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  • Good luck, Christina. Hope you get there.

    • praying for you, Christina. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.

      • Sending strength. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 18 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless

        • Sending good thoughts, Christina. Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. God bless.
