Back on our feet: Joko and two young children in Jakarta Barat
Joko and two young children need a bridge to stability after the death of my husband.
🇮🇩 Jakarta Barat, DKI Jakarta, Indonesia843 views
Since the death of my husband in February, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a care worker, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a web developer in the evenings, which will triple my income by May, 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 $600 goes:
• Groceries and school meals: $95
• Childcare and after-school care: $175
• Rent top-up: $330
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
