🇵🇰 Multan, Punjab, Pakistan1,139 views
After a house fire in March, I'm now raising a teenage son and a daughter in primary school 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 July, 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 $400 goes:
• Groceries and school meals: $95
• Rent top-up: $240
• Course fees and exam costs: $65
Every share and every dollar helps.
Updates from Amna
Update from Multan: I made the first payment toward groceries and school meals. We're at 30% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Thank you all. We're at 16% now ($64). I'm honestly stunned. we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.

Praying for you. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Reading.
Hope it all works out, Amna. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
It takes guts to ask. Well done. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Thinking of Multan.
Praying for you, Amna. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up.
Thanks for sharing this. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Port Harcourt
