My family left Venezuela 5 months ago after we were targeted for our work. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Gaziantep. We're a family of five and we're safe, but we arrived with very little.
Our resettlement agency has provided 2 months of rent, and that support ends in November.
I was an engineer 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.
All purchases will be documented and photos shared (with the family's consent).
Where the $450 goes:
• Phone and internet for school and job search: $45
• Beds, table and basic furniture: $230
• Winter clothing and school supplies: $175
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

you're not alone, Yağmur. Shared it with a few friends. Thinking of Gaziantep.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Yağmur?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about phone and internet for school and job search, advice is welcome too. Happy to explain more.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. After 10 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from Iztapalapa.
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Yağmur.
Phone and internet for school and job search is $45 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page.
Wishing you the best. I hope things turn around soon. Love from San Francisco
Wishing you the best. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. All the best.
Wishing you the best, Yağmur. Hope this works out for you. Don't give up!
