Back on our feet: Nadia and two young children in Moscow
A single mother in Moscow needs help with childcare, groceries and rent while Nadia retrains.
🇷🇺 Moscow, Moscow, Russia1,042 views
After my partner leaving in September, 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 medical coder 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $900 goes:
• Course fees and exam costs: $155
• Rent top-up: $460
• Childcare and after-school care: $285
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
Updates from Nadia
Good news. Because of your gifts ($371 in total) I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
