Back on our feet: Karina and twin daughters in Zapopan
Karina and twin daughters need a bridge to stability after a house fire.
🇲🇽 Zapopan, Jalisco, Mexico950 views
Since a house fire in March, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a hairdresser, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a bookkeeper 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.
Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts.
Where the $1,250 goes:
• Rent top-up: $500
• Childcare and after-school care: $440
• Groceries and school meals: $170
• Course fees and exam costs: $140
Glad we found this place.

hope it all works out. Your post was clear and honest. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Take care.
You're not alone, Karina. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.
Keep going, Karina. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings.
