Last August I went through a long illness, and I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a part-time receptionist, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a teaching assistant in the evenings, which will triple my income by December, 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 $250 goes: • Childcare and after-school care: $120 • Groceries and school meals: $85 • Course fees and exam costs: $45 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Ishrat

  • Wishing you the best. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I went through something like this 3 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings

    • best of luck, Ishrat. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Heliopolis but we're thinking of you.

      • Hope it all works out, Ishrat. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings

        • So sorry you're going through this, Ishrat. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor in Bangkok donated after I showed her your page. God bless!
