Help Janina get through 5 hard months with a toddler and a seven-year-old
Janina and a toddler and a seven-year-old need a bridge to stability after a sudden redundancy.
🇵🇱 Silesia, Poland3,355 views
After a sudden redundancy in March, I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a cleaner, 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 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 $1,550 goes:
• Rent top-up: $440
• Childcare and after-school care: $460
• Groceries and school meals: $390
• Course fees and exam costs: $260
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Janina?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about rent top-up, advice is welcome too. Appreciate you taking the time.
thinking of you. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Ciudad de México this morning.
Thinking of you and your family, Janina. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
So sorry you're going through this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Take care.
How is Janina doing now?
Thanks for sharing this, Janina. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Cape Town
So sorry you're going through this, Janina. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Newport.
Thanks for sharing this, Janina. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together.
