Help Dua get through 5 hard months with four children
Dua and four children need a bridge to stability after a house fire.
🇵🇰 Pakistan532 views
After a house fire in March, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a retail cashier, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a dental nurse 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $350 goes:
• Rent top-up: $165
• Course fees and exam costs: $40
• Childcare and after-school care: $145
Thanks for being kind about this.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Dua?
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Love from Nagpur
So sorry you're going through this, Dua. Your post was clear and honest
Thinking of you and your family. This could happen to any of us. Thinking of Multan
Thanks for sharing this, Dua. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 5 people at work. Thinking of Multan
Stay strong. Shared it with a few friends. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Hồ Chí Minh City.
