Back on our feet: Pradeep and three children under 12 in Hubballi
Pradeep and three children under 12 need a bridge to stability after a long illness.

Last July I went through a long illness, and I'm now raising three children under 12 on my own. I work as a hairdresser, 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 October, 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 $650 goes:
• Rent top-up: $210
• Childcare and after-school care: $185
• Groceries and school meals: $135
• Course fees and exam costs: $120
With deep gratitude,
Pradeep

Rooting for you, Pradeep. It takes guts to ask. Well done. All the best.
praying for you. Looking forward to the next update. Thinking of Hubballi
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless
Thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. We're a small family in Cần Thơ but we're thinking of you.
You're not alone. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Blessings
