Help Shruthi get through 3 hard months with twin daughters
Shruthi and twin daughters need a bridge to stability after a divorce.
🇮🇳 Pune, Maharashtra, India491 views
After a divorce in March, 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 an electrician in the evenings, which will triple my income by May, 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 $550 goes:
• Rent top-up: $170
• Childcare and after-school care: $150
• Groceries and school meals: $140
• Course fees and exam costs: $90
Thank you so much.

Take care, Shruthi. Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.
Sending strength, Shruthi. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Greetings from Chicago
So sorry you're going through this. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't give up. Love from Mysuru
