Welcome home - resettlement fund for the Bakr family

My family left Sudan 5 months ago after our home was destroyed. We spent time in a camp before we were resettled in Miami. 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 January. 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. Funds are managed by the Miami Refugee Support Network, a registered organization, which pays the landlord and suppliers on the family's behalf. Where the $4,150 goes: • Language classes and bus passes: $350 • Rent deposit and first month: $2,050 • Beds, table and basic furniture: $1,200 • Winter clothing and school supplies: $550 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Willow
