Back on our feet: Remedios and four children in Quezon City
After my partner leaving, Remedios is raising four children alone and needs $550 to stay afloat for 3 months.

Last August I went through my partner leaving, and I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a retail cashier, 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 December, 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 $550 goes:
• Childcare and after-school care: $240
• Course fees and exam costs: $160
• Groceries and school meals: $150
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Sending love, Remedios. Shared this with my family. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Quezon City
Stay strong, Remedios. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together.
Rooting for you. Your post was clear and honest. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Remedios?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about childcare and after-school care, advice is welcome too.
shared this with my family. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from İzmir
Keep going. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Wish I lived closer to Rabat so I could bring a meal.
Hang in there, Remedios. This could happen to any of us. Don't give up.
Hope things get better soon, Remedios. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together.
Take care. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Tiruchirappalli!
