Back on our feet: Chukwuemeka and four children in Wudil
A single parent in Wudil needs help with childcare, groceries and rent while Chukwuemeka retrains.
🇳🇬 Wudil, Kano, Nigeria74 views
Since my partner leaving in May, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a driver, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a teaching assistant in the evenings, which will triple my income by July, 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $500 goes:
• Childcare and after-school care: $105
• Rent top-up: $330
• Course fees and exam costs: $65
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Rooting for you, Chukwuemeka. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless
Thanks for sharing this, Chukwuemeka. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Rockford.
Wishing you the best, Chukwuemeka. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry
