Since my partner leaving in February, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a cleaner, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a dental nurse in the evenings, which will triple my income by April, 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 $350 goes:
• Groceries and school meals: $95
• Childcare and after-school care: $140
• Course fees and exam costs: $115
With deep gratitude,
Halima

Hope this works out for you. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from La Plata.
Rooting for you, Halima. Looking forward to the next update. We're a small family in Multan but we're thinking of you. Blessings!
Thinking of you, Halima. It takes guts to ask. Well done
