Milan
My family left Venezuela 11 months ago after we could no longer live safely. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Milan. 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 November. 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 Milan Welcome Table charity, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $1,950 goes: • Phone and internet for school and job search: $105 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $360 • Language classes and bus passes: $480 • Rent deposit and first month: $1,005 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Salvatore

  • How is Salvatore doing now?

    • You're not alone, Salvatore. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

      • Rooting for you, Salvatore. Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Cincinnati.
