Nagpur
Since a divorce in July, I'm now raising three children under 12 on my own. I work as a hairdresser, 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 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: $310 • Childcare and after-school care: $175 • Groceries and school meals: $110 • Course fees and exam costs: $105 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

    stay strong. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. After 6 years in social work I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.

    • Frank MeyerQuestion

      is there anything that isn't money that would help Kirit?

      • Shanice K. Padayachee

        Sending good thoughts, Kirit. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. All the best.

          You're not alone, Kirit. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. God bless

            how is Kirit doing now?

            • Yolanda A. Mora

              Keep going, Kirit. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in Cox's Bazar donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Nagpur.

                You're not alone. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected!
