Help Evangelia get through 4 hard months with four children
After the death of my husband, Evangelia is raising four children alone and needs $1,800 to stay afloat for 4 months.

After the death of my husband in July, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a care worker, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as an electrician 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 $1,800 goes:
• Rent top-up: $460
• Childcare and after-school care: $500
• Groceries and school meals: $600
• Course fees and exam costs: $240
Thanks for being kind about this.

Thinking of you, Evangelia. Hope you get there. All the best.
How is Evangelia doing now?
So sorry you're going through this, Evangelia. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Evangelia!
It's all in the list in the story. rent top-up is the big one at $460, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. It helps to be asked.
Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Thessaloniki.
So sorry you're going through this. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. After 27 years in construction I know how hard it is to ask for anything.
Hope things get better soon. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out
Take care, Evangelia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Tel Aviv!
