Recipient story
Trauma Survivor Fighting for Stability
GIVIT
She fled El Salvador after cartel threats and violence tore her family’s safety apart. When her daughter was assaulted and local police were linked to the cartel, escape was the only option.
Now living in Canberra with her husband and four daughters, all attending school, she is working hard to rebuild their lives. But serious health challenges have made survival extremely difficult. Following surgery, she faces mobility issues, chronic pain, and ongoing mental health struggles. She lost her job after surgery and now manages only a few hours of cleaning work each week, far from enough to meet basic needs.
Her husband is also injured and awaiting surgery in September, which will further reduce their already limited income. Despite these challenges, she remains determined to create a safe and stable future for her family.
Your support can give this family a vital lifeline, helping cover essentials and providing the stability and dignity they are striving to rebuild.
