Shukeri now feels safe!

D200-0512-344w
Shukeri and her family arrived off the bus from Negadi, another refugee camp about 4 kilometers away. They are from Kismanul, Somalia. Life in Somalia was very bad because of the war. The family traveled to Kenya on foot for 18 days. At one point, Shukeri and her little brother were able to get on a truck, but were misplaced from her father. She says, “I was very shocked. I was very much worried because I could not see my father.” She had no way of knowing if he was still alive until they arrived at the camp.

The family was not only provided much needed food and water, but were additionally placed in a World Vision tent within a new part of the camp. Negadi is better than Somalia for Shukeri because there was peace.  However Negadi was very crowded, “there were so many people, there was no space, and we were not always able to be with each other”.

Thanks to receiving food and water and a new home, Shukeri says, “I have no fear. I feel secure”. Now Shukeri and her family can live in a much safer environment.  Thanks so much for helping support Shukeri!
