Last April I went through a house fire, and I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a hairdresser, 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 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. Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown. Where the $800 goes: • Groceries and school meals: $290 • Rent top-up: $260 • Childcare and after-school care: $250 Thank you for reading my story. - Viktoria

Praying for you. Hope this works out for you. My neighbor in Belém donated after I showed her your page. All the best.

Hope things get better soon, Viktoria. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I have a 16 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless
