Back on our feet: Pauline and three children under 5 in Casablanca
Pauline and three children under 5 need a bridge to stability after a divorce.
🇲🇦 Casablanca-Settat, Morocco507 views
After a divorce in February, I'm now raising three children under 5 on my own. I work as a cleaner, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a dental nurse in the evenings, which will triple my income by April, 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 $650 goes:
• Childcare and after-school care: $180
• Rent top-up: $310
• Groceries and school meals: $160
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Pauline?
Thank you. If you're in Casablanca I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.
This could happen to any of us. My husband and I read this together. Blessings.
Wishing you the best, Pauline. Shared this with my family. Blessings.
Praying for you, Pauline. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Greetings from Anaheim.
Any update on how things are going in Casablanca?
Hang in there, Pauline. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Love from Seongnam.
Thinking of you, Pauline. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too!
Sending love. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless
so sorry you're going through this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't give up.
You're not alone. This could happen to any of us. Sent it to 8 people at work. All the best.
Wishing you peace, Pauline. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Wishing you peace, Pauline. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together!
