Málaga
My family left Sudan 13 months ago after the conflict closed our school and clinic. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Málaga. We're a family of eight and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 4 months of rent, and that support ends in November. I was an engineer in Sudan, 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 $2,550 goes: • Rent deposit and first month: $1,300 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $390 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $500 • Language classes and bus passes: $170 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $190 Thanks for being kind about this. - Laura

    Hope things get better soon, Laura. Shared it with a few friends. Please keep us posted

    • Stay strong. Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.

      • Hang in there, Laura. This could happen to any of us.

        • Keep going. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in London this morning. Thinking of Málaga

          • Keep going. Hope this works out for you. Put this on a community board in Lagos this morning.

                Best of luck, Laura. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. All the best

                    wishing you the best, Laura. I hope things turn around soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

                    • sending good thoughts. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless!

                      • Thanks for sharing this, Laura. Shared this with my family. All the best

                        • Sending strength, Laura. Shared this with my family. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double

                          • sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Please keep us posted

                            • You're not alone, Laura. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out

                              • Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. Love from Springfield.
