The Hosseini family fled Eritrea - help them rebuild in London

The Hosseini family are rebuilding in London after leaving Eritrea; your gift pays for housing basics.

London
My family left Eritrea 7 months ago after we could no longer live safely. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in London. We're a family of eight and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 2 months of rent, and that support ends in December. I was a nurse in Eritrea, 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 a local church-run settlement group, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $1,950 goes: • Winter clothing and school supplies: $580 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $240 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $640 • Language classes and bus passes: $490 Thanks for being kind about this.

                this could happen to any of us. After 24 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings
