Since a long illness in April, 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 pharmacy technician in the evenings, which will triple my income by July, 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 $700 goes: • Rent top-up: $195 • Childcare and after-school care: $240 • Groceries and school meals: $105 • Course fees and exam costs: $160 I hope life is good to you. - Sanduni

  • hope it all works out, Sanduni. Hope you get there. We're a small family in Cairns but we're thinking of you. Blessings.

    • So sorry you're going through this, Sanduni. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Nairobi so I could bring a meal.

        Praying for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. God bless.

        • Sending good thoughts. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I hope July is when things finally get easier. Love from Cairo

          • Thinking of you, Sanduni. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Blessings

            • Thinking of you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from Miami.
