Is there anything that isn't money that would help Valentina?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about childcare and after-school care, advice is welcome too. Let me know if you want more detail.
Sending good thoughts. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out.
do you have the lease you could share with the moderators?
I sent the lease in when I posted. I'll upload a redacted copy this week.
Thanks for sharing this. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Jacksonville donated after I showed her your page.
Hope things get better soon. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 20 people at work. All the best.
