A single parent in Vadodara needs help with childcare, groceries and rent while Radha retrains.

Since a house fire in January, I'm now raising a teenage son and a daughter in primary school on my own. I work as a driver, 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 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.
Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts.
Where the $500 goes:
• Rent top-up: $250
• Course fees and exam costs: $140
• Groceries and school meals: $110
Thanks for being kind about this.

good luck, Radha. Shared this with my family. Thinking of Vadodara.
Stay strong, Radha. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Thinking of Vadodara.
Sending love, Radha. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless.
Hope things get better soon. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. After 21 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
Hope things get better soon, Radha. Shared it with a few friends
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My neighbor in Seongnam donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.

Hope it all works out. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out.
