Help Corazon get through 4 hard months with twin daughters
After my partner leaving, Corazon is raising twin daughters alone and needs $650 to stay afloat for 4 months.

Last July I went through my partner leaving, and 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 pharmacy technician 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.
Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts.
Where the $650 goes:
• Rent top-up: $310
• Childcare and after-school care: $135
• Groceries and school meals: $120
• Course fees and exam costs: $85
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near San Fernando!
Thank you. If you're in San Fernando I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Happy to explain more.
Wishing you the best. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. God bless
Wishing you the best. This could happen to any of us. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Blessings.
Thinking of you and your family, Corazon. Your post was clear and honest. Love from Abuja
