Help Dung get through 5 hard months with a toddler and a seven-year-old
Dung and a toddler and a seven-year-old need a bridge to stability after the death of my husband.

After the death of my husband in May, I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a hairdresser, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a bookkeeper 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.
Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts.
Where the $600 goes:
• Course fees and exam costs: $80
• Rent top-up: $360
• Childcare and after-school care: $160
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

so sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Praying for you, Dung. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best.
