Last November I went through a long illness, and I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a cleaner, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a pharmacy technician in the evenings, which will triple my income by February, 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: $260
• Childcare and after-school care: $170
• Groceries and school meals: $175
• Course fees and exam costs: $95
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

thinking of you and your family, Madhu. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My neighbor in Epe donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Jaipur.
Shared this with my family. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Sukkur.
Good luck, Madhu. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Thinking of Jaipur.
Thinking of you. Hope you get there. Sent it to 25 people at work. Blessings
