Lahore
My family left Ethiopia 13 months ago after the war reached our town. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Lahore. 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 May. I was a teacher in Ethiopia, 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 $350 goes: • Language classes and bus passes: $85 • Rent deposit and first month: $135 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $30 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $100 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Haider

  • Is there anything that isn't money that would help Haider?

    • Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about language classes and bus passes, advice is welcome too. Thanks for asking.

  • Praying for you, Haider. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.

    • Keep going, Haider. Looking forward to the next update. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.
