Help a family of 3 start their new life in Anaheim: furniture, rent deposit and language classes.

My family left Venezuela 10 months ago after we could no longer live safely. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Anaheim. 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 August.
I was a mechanic in Venezuela, 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 Anaheim Welcome Table charity, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf.
Where the $4,350 goes:
• Rent deposit and first month: $2,750
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $650
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $240
• Language classes and bus passes: $710
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Thinking of you and your family, Denise. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day

How is Denise doing now?

sending love, Denise. Gave what I could, wish it was more. It's not much but it's yours. Take care
Sending love, Denise. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Anaheim.
