Back on our feet: Humaira and a toddler and a seven-year-old in Abbottabad
After a divorce, Humaira is raising a toddler and a seven-year-old alone and needs $400 to stay afloat for 4 months.
🇵🇰 Abbottabad, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan878 views
Since a divorce in May, I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a driver, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a medical coder in the evenings, which will triple my income by August, 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 $400 goes:
• Rent top-up: $230
• Childcare and after-school care: $110
• Course fees and exam costs: $60

I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Obuasi.
Praying for you, Humaira. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. God bless.
Best of luck, Humaira. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My mother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Take care.
Hope it all works out. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
Take care, Humaira. Hope you get there. Blessings.
keep going, Humaira. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Love from Addis Ababa.
Take care, Humaira. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. God bless
