Help Duygu get through 5 hard months with twin daughters
Duygu and twin daughters need a bridge to stability after the death of my husband.

After the death of my husband in February, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, 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 May, 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 $2,750 goes:
• Groceries and school meals: $470
• Rent top-up: $1,450
• Childcare and after-school care: $830
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

- Genuine person with a big heart
This is the kind of person who restores your faith in humanity. They didn't just offer help; they genuinely cared about my wellbeing and followed through on every commitment.
- Very responsive and caring
Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.

Praying for you. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My husband and I read this together.
Sending good thoughts. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Mannheim.
best of luck. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Quezon City but we're thinking of you
Hope it all works out. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I went through something like this 12 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Badagry
Hang in there. This could happen to any of us. It's not much but it's yours
