We request £120 to buy clothes for FR, a refugee from Kuwait, who has been in Colchester as an asylum seeker and engages with our charity. The Home Office moved him to Birmingham, where he got his residency, but decided to come back to Colchester. FR is homeless now and they have currently stopped his Universal Credit of £300.
Still £120 left to donate
Total needed £120This single mother came to the St Vincent de Paul centre with her triplets, struggling with significant hurdles in caring for herself and her little ones. Our objective is to meet her pressing needs now and offer continuous assistance with essential items. We urgently seek a food parcel for this family for four weeks, including necessities like diapers, milk and clothing, as we coordinate with other organisations to establish a more lasting solution for the mother. Any aid in this endeavour would be deeply valued.
