Jean is a single parent of two young children - help us after a divorce
Jean and two young children need a bridge to stability after a divorce.
🇲🇦 Morocco807 views
After a divorce in January, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a driver, 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $450 goes:
• Childcare and after-school care: $175
• Groceries and school meals: $125
• Course fees and exam costs: $150
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

So sorry you're going through this, Jean. This could happen to any of us. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care
