Help Kostas get through 4 hard months with twin daughters
Kostas and twin daughters need a bridge to stability after a divorce.
🇬🇷 Attica, Greece573 views
After a divorce in May, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a cleaner, 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 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 $1,700 goes:
• Rent top-up: $620
• Childcare and after-school care: $350
• Groceries and school meals: $370
• Course fees and exam costs: $360
Thank you for reading my story.

Updates from Kostas
Wanted to say thank you properly. 7% funded and the plan for rent top-up is now scheduled.
Update from Athens: I made the first payment toward childcare and after-school care. We're at 4% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

how is Kostas doing now?
Sending strength, Kostas. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.
Hope it all works out, Kostas. Gave what I could, wish it was more
Hope it all works out, Kostas. This could happen to any of us. I hope July is when things finally get easier. Blessings.
