The Okonkwo family fled Sudan - help them rebuild in Sheffield

My family left Sudan 13 months ago after we were targeted for our work. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Sheffield. We're a family of eight and we're safe, but we arrived with very little. Our resettlement agency has provided 2 months of rent, and that support ends in June. I was a shopkeeper 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. All purchases will be documented and photos shared (with the family's consent). Where the $3,500 goes: • Rent deposit and first month: $1,650 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $920 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $360 • Language classes and bus passes: $340 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $230 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Ellie
