Back on our feet: Krishna and a toddler and a seven-year-old in Pune
Krishna and a toddler and a seven-year-old need a bridge to stability after the death of my husband.

Last August I went through the death of my husband, and I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a hairdresser, 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 November, 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 $300 goes:
• Rent top-up: $120
• Childcare and after-school care: $130
• Course fees and exam costs: $50
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Stay strong, Krishna. Hope this works out for you. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Mumbai.
