Help Dan get through 5 hard months with twin daughters
Dan and twin daughters need a bridge to stability after a long illness.
Anywhere in the world1,711 views
Since a long illness in August, 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 web developer 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 $2,350 goes:
• Childcare and after-school care: $1,350
• Groceries and school meals: $570
• Course fees and exam costs: $430
With deep gratitude,
Dan

Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Mendoza.
