Help Axel get through 4 hard months with a toddler and a seven-year-old
Axel and a toddler and a seven-year-old need a bridge to stability after the death of my husband.
🇬🇧 Liverpool, England, United Kingdom3,247 views
Last July I went through the death of my husband, and I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a cleaner, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as an electrician in the evenings, which will triple my income by October, 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 $3,600 goes:
• Rent top-up: $1,150
• Childcare and after-school care: $1,150
• Groceries and school meals: $500
• Course fees and exam costs: $800
Every share and every dollar helps.
