Help Julia get through 6 hard months with three children under 11
Julia and three children under 11 need a bridge to stability after the death of my husband.

Last September I went through the death of my husband, and I'm now raising three children under 11 on my own. I work as a retail cashier, 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 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 $1,950 goes:
• Rent top-up: $880
• Childcare and after-school care: $380
• Groceries and school meals: $480
• Course fees and exam costs: $210
I hope life is good to you.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Gliwice
Hope things get better soon, Julia. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.
Wishing you the best, Julia. I hope things turn around soon
Sending good thoughts, Julia. Your post was clear and honest. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Best of luck, Julia. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Thinking of Gliwice.
Thinking of you, Julia. Looking forward to the next update. Greetings from Faisalabad
