Dinusha is a single parent of twin daughters - help us after my partner leaving
After my partner leaving, Dinusha is raising twin daughters alone and needs $600 to stay afloat for 3 months.

Since my partner leaving in August, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a retail cashier, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a web developer in the evenings, which will triple my income by November, 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 $600 goes:
• Rent top-up: $220
• Childcare and after-school care: $195
• Groceries and school meals: $145
• Course fees and exam costs: $40
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

thanks for sharing this, Dinusha. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Love from Hamilton.
I hope things turn around soon. My neighbor in Aurangabad donated after I showed her your page. Greetings from Aurangabad.
