Nghĩan is a single parent of a toddler and a seven-year-old - help us after the death of my husband
A single mother in Nha Trang needs help with childcare, groceries and rent while Nghĩa retrains.
🇻🇳 Nha Trang, Khánh Hòa, Vietnam1,424 views
Since the death of my husband in May, I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, 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 August, 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 $750 goes:
• Rent top-up: $280
• Childcare and after-school care: $180
• Groceries and school meals: $165
• Course fees and exam costs: $125
Thank you so much.

Hope it all works out, Nghĩa. This could happen to any of us
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Nghĩa.
Rent top-up is $280 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Happy to explain more.
Take care, Nghĩa. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Love from East London
Hope things get better soon, Nghĩa. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
rooting for you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Lucknow.
best of luck. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Nha Trang
Good luck, Nghĩa. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. God bless.
Best of luck, Nghĩa. Shared it with a few friends. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend
