Back on our feet: Rakib and three children under 10 in Gazipur

After the death of my husband in December, I'm now raising three children under 10 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 March, 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 $550 goes: • Rent top-up: $240 • Childcare and after-school care: $105 • Groceries and school meals: $150 • Course fees and exam costs: $55 Thank you so much.
