Regina
My family left Ethiopia 5 months ago after the conflict closed our school and clinic. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Regina. 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 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. All purchases will be documented and photos shared (with the family's consent). Where the $4,350 goes: • Rent deposit and first month: $1,450 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $1,350 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $770 • Language classes and bus passes: $550 • Phone and internet for school and job search: $230 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Na

    Shared this with my family. Thinking of Regina!

    • Take care, Na. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Take care.

      • is there anything that isn't money that would help Na?

        • Na Na ZhuOwnerAnswer

          Thank you. If you're in Regina I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. I'll keep the page updated.

      • Thinking of you, Na. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care.

        • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Na.

          • Na Na ZhuOwnerAnswer

            Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. rent deposit and first month comes first ($1,450) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Ask me anything else.

        • Praying for you. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Put this on a community board in Düsseldorf this morning. All the best.

          • You're not alone. I hope things turn around soon. Blessings!

            • Rooting for you, Na. Hope you get there. After 13 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.

              • wishing you peace, Na. Your post was clear and honest. Don't give up. God bless.

                • you're not alone, Na. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. God bless.
