Help Luke get through 6 hard months with twin daughters
Luke and twin daughters need a bridge to stability after the death of my husband.
🇺🇸 Memphis, Tennessee, United States1,891 views
Since the death of my husband in June, 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 pharmacy technician in the evenings, which will triple my income by September, 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 $3,350 goes:
• Rent top-up: $960
• Childcare and after-school care: $810
• Groceries and school meals: $780
• Course fees and exam costs: $800
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
Updates from Luke
Small update. $397 so far, I made the first payment toward rent top-up.
2% there. we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Thank you.

Take care. Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in El Paso but we're thinking of you.
So sorry you're going through this. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Surabaya
