Help Nabirye get through 4 hard months with a toddler and a seven-year-old
Nabirye and a toddler and a seven-year-old need a bridge to stability after the death of my husband.

After the death of my husband in May, I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as an electrician 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $400 goes:
• Groceries and school meals: $175
• Course fees and exam costs: $95
• Childcare and after-school care: $130
Every share and every dollar helps.

Take care, Nabirye. Your post was clear and honest. My neighbor in Nairobi donated after I showed her your page
Thinking of you and your family. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless
Sending good thoughts. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless
