Everett is a single parent of twin daughters - help us after my partner leaving
Everett and twin daughters need a bridge to stability after my partner leaving.
🇺🇸 Fresno, California, United States1,965 views
Since my partner leaving in November, 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 medical coder in the evenings, which will triple my income by January, 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 $3,500 goes:
• Childcare and after-school care: $1,600
• Groceries and school meals: $900
• Rent top-up: $1,000
Thanks for being kind about this.

Good luck, Everett. I hope things turn around soon. My husband and I read this together.
Hang in there, Everett. Hope you get there. God bless!
Thinking of you, Everett. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Thinking of Fresno.
Best of luck. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. God bless.
Keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Spanish Town!
