Since a house fire in September, I'm now raising three children under 12 on my own. I work as a hairdresser, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as an electrician in the evenings, which will triple my income by December, but I need to bridge the gap until then.
Some weeks I skip meals so my children can eat. I have never asked anyone for help like this before, and I'm doing it for them.
Once I finish my course, I'll pay it forward.
Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts.
Where the $400 goes:
• Rent top-up: $180
• Childcare and after-school care: $115
• Groceries and school meals: $65
• Course fees and exam costs: $40
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
Praying for you, Bhavna. I hope things turn around soon. After 27 years in customer support I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Wishing you peace. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry!
Praying for you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Put this on a community board in Minneapolis this morning. God bless.
Hope this works out for you. Wish I lived closer to Yekaterinburg so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Udaipur.
