Support Refugees' Journey to Stability
Donation protected
Hello, I am currently helping my friends that are refugees from a Middle East country. They are hard-working, kind, wonderful people who through no fault of their own are facing very difficult circumstances. Right now I am helping them raise funds to cover their rent. They are very happy in here in their new town and are hopeful to remain in their current home so that they can continue in Manheim Central schools and be stable. If they cannot afford their current rent, they will be forced to relocate. They have already faced so much hardship that I am determined to help them remain in their home.
Here is a great summary of what so many refugees are facing, including this family. "Forced to flee their homes, refugee families in the Middle East continue to face numerous hardships. Without a network to support them in this monumental transition, many families struggle in their search for permanent work options, sufficient housing, quality education, affordable health care, community integration, and emotional stability. With very few resources of their own, refugee families struggle to have enough money for basic food and medical expenses. Job opportunities are extremely limited and resettlement organizations and government programs often cease providing aid before refugee families are fully resettled." This last part is exactly why I am helping them raise funds for rent. Their agency had been paying it, but the grant money ran out and now they are expected to pick up this large expense. Please help this family with any amount that you are able to because any gift will help, and I believe that together we can make a big difference for this family! Thank you!
