Help Jadwiga get through 4 hard months with two young children
A single mother in Kraków needs help with childcare, groceries and rent while Jadwiga retrains.
🇵🇱 Lesser Poland, Poland1,406 views
After a divorce in March, I'm now raising two young children 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 June, 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 $1,650 goes:
• Rent top-up: $650
• Childcare and after-school care: $360
• Groceries and school meals: $480
• Course fees and exam costs: $160
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

16% there. the plan for course fees and exam costs is now scheduled. Thank you.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($105 in total) I made the first payment toward childcare and after-school care. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

Thanks for sharing this, Jadwiga. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Wish I lived closer to Taguig so I could bring a meal
Best of luck, Jadwiga. Shared it with a few friends. Love from Nairobi.
Sending love, Jadwiga. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. After 12 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Greetings from San Nicolás de los Garza
Thanks for sharing this, Jadwiga. Hope you get there. God bless.
Take care, Jadwiga. Looking forward to the next update. I'll check back for the next update
