Help Jitra get through 6 hard months with four children
Jitra and four children need a bridge to stability after the death of my husband.
🇹🇭 Thailand1,313 views
After the death of my husband in November, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a hairdresser, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a web developer in the evenings, which will triple my income by February, 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 $850 goes:
• Rent top-up: $260
• Childcare and after-school care: $300
• Groceries and school meals: $175
• Course fees and exam costs: $115
Thank you for reading my story.

is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Jitra
It's all in the list in the story. rent top-up is the big one at $260, I'll post a receipt when it's paid. Thanks for asking.
Hope it all works out, Jitra. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Rochester so I could bring a meal. Take care!
Rooting for you, Jitra. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Jeddah.
take care. Shared this with my family. I'm in farming myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings
How is Jitra doing now?
Hope it all works out, Jitra. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from San Diego
Sending love, Jitra. I hope things turn around soon. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I hope February is when things finally get easier. Love from Spokane.
