Help Nasrin get through 3 hard months with a teenage son and a daughter in primary school
A single father in Gazipur needs help with childcare, groceries and rent while Nasrin retrains.

Since a long illness in July, I'm now raising a teenage son and a daughter in primary school on my own. I work as a part-time receptionist, 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 October, 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 $500 goes:
• Course fees and exam costs: $70
• Childcare and after-school care: $155
• Rent top-up: $275
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Updates from Nasrin
Wanted to say thank you properly. 82% funded and the first invoice got paid this week.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($203 in total) I made the first payment toward rent top-up. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
39% there. the plan for childcare and after-school care is now scheduled. Thank you.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Nasrin.
Sure. The biggest one is course fees and exam costs, $70. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Appreciate you taking the time.
wishing you the best, Nasrin. Looking forward to the next update. All the best.
