Day 29: “Differences and Challenges”

#50Days4Refugees - Day 29: “Differences and Challenges”
What if… you woke up tomorrow and discovered that you couldn’t understand anyone around you, couldn’t let anyone around you know what you wanted or needed because you didn’t speak their language, didn’t know how or where to buy food, didn’t know how or where to take your sick child to a doctor, didn’t know how or where to call for help…...then chances would be pretty good you would be what we all call a “refugee.”

Our new friends Massama, Moshan, and Marjan each lived through this after fleeing Afghanistan and starting their new lives in America. Please enjoy today’s series of clips in which they each describe their perception of the challenges and differences between life in Afghanistan and life in America - as wells as the incredibly effective and needed support they received through Home for Refugees.
