Last August I went through the death of my husband, and I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a driver, 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $3,750 goes:
• Rent top-up: $1,150
• Childcare and after-school care: $1,450
• Groceries and school meals: $600
• Course fees and exam costs: $550
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Shared it with a few friends. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from St. Petersburg
So sorry you're going through this, Danielle. Looking forward to the next update. Take care
so sorry you're going through this. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Don't give up.
Rooting for you, Danielle. This could happen to any of us. My neighbor in Quezon City donated after I showed her your page. Blessings
Thinking of you and your family. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We're a small family in Pune but we're thinking of you. All the best.
