The Mohammadi family fled Sudan - help them rebuild in Nairobi
Help a family of 7 start their new life in Nairobi: furniture, rent deposit and language classes.
🇰🇪 Kenya1,424 views
My family left Sudan 8 months ago after our home was destroyed. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Nairobi. We're a family of seven 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 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.
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 $750 goes:
• Rent deposit and first month: $360
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $210
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $80
• Language classes and bus passes: $45
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $55
Every share and every dollar helps.

Wanted to say thank you properly. 31% funded and the plan for beds, table and basic furniture is now scheduled. - Janet
