Sandra is a single parent of two young children - help us after the death of my husband
Sandra and two young children need a bridge to stability after the death of my husband.

Since the death of my husband in August, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a retail cashier, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a bookkeeper 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $1,350 goes:
• Rent top-up: $400
• Childcare and after-school care: $370
• Groceries and school meals: $320
• Course fees and exam costs: $260
I hope life is good to you.
- Sandra

Wishing you the best, Sandra. Hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Ankara.
hope this works out for you. Thinking of Rio de Janeiro.
Stay strong, Sandra. This could happen to any of us. I hope October is when things finally get easier.
Sending good thoughts. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Saket.
Wishing you peace. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. All the best!
