Help Vadym get through 6 hard months with a teenage son and a daughter in primary school
A single mother in Kyiv needs help with childcare, groceries and rent while Vadym retrains.
🇺🇦 Kyiv, Ukraine1,986 views
Since the death of my husband in August, I'm now raising a teenage son and a daughter in primary school on my own. I work as a driver, 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 $700 goes:
• Rent top-up: $350
• Course fees and exam costs: $175
• Groceries and school meals: $175
Every share and every dollar helps.

Stay strong, Vadym. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Don't be hard on yourself for asking
thinking of you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Thinking of Kyiv
Rooting for you, Vadym. Hope this works out for you. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Gazipur.
thanks for sharing this, Vadym. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
