The Mukiza family fled Ukraine - help them rebuild in Mukono
After fleeing Ukraine, the Mukiza family has arrived in Mukono with little more than their documents. They need help with a deposit, furniture and the first months.

My family left Ukraine 10 months ago after the war reached our town. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Mukono. 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 a teacher in Ukraine, 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 $550 goes:
• Rent deposit and first month: $220
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $155
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $85
• Language classes and bus passes: $50
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $40
If you're reading this, thank you.

Rooting for you, Kiprop. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care!
thinking of you. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 11 years in teaching I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Stay strong, Kiprop. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings
praying for you, Kiprop. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Take care
hope things get better soon. Your post was clear and honest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Thinking of Mukono.
Hang in there. Looking forward to the next update. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Blessings.
