Help Ruma get through 6 hard months with twin daughters
Ruma and twin daughters need a bridge to stability after my partner leaving.
🇮🇳 India1,186 views
After my partner leaving in August, 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 medical coder 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.
Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts.
Where the $350 goes:
• Childcare and after-school care: $140
• Course fees and exam costs: $115
• Groceries and school meals: $95
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

Sending strength. Hope this works out for you. I hope October is when things finally get easier. God bless!
This could happen to any of us. I hope October is when things finally get easier. Love from Iztapalapa.
You're not alone, Ruma. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I went through something like this 4 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Mumbai but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Mumbai
