Help Long get through 5 hard months with twin daughters
A single mother in Cần Thơ needs help with childcare, groceries and rent while Long retrains.

Last August I went through a long illness, and I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a care worker, 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 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.
Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts.
Where the $550 goes:
• Course fees and exam costs: $75
• Rent top-up: $310
• Childcare and after-school care: $165
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
Updates from Long
Good news. Because of your gifts ($55 in total) I made the first payment toward course fees and exam costs. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Thank you all. We're at 39% now ($216). I'm honestly stunned. we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.

Hope things get better soon. I hope things turn around soon. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Soweto
