The Karimi family fled Myanmar - help them rebuild in Seattle
After fleeing Myanmar, the Karimi family has arrived in Seattle with little more than their documents. They need help with a deposit, furniture and the first months.
Updates from Lucas
Thank you all. We're at 53% now ($2,499). I'm honestly stunned. we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.
Quick update: $1,652 raised so far (35%). I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Update from Seattle: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 28% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

Sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings
Keep going. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from San Francisco
can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Seattle.
Thank you. If you're in Seattle I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
Thinking of you and your family. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Kathmandu this morning!
is beds, table and basic furniture the biggest cost or is there more coming?
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. beds, table and basic furniture comes first ($1,250) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Good question.
Hope it all works out, Lucas. Hope you get there. Put this on a community board in Salvador this morning. Greetings from Salvador.
hope things get better soon, Lucas. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours. God bless.
Rooting for you, Lucas. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. All the best.
