Great idea, hope you get there. My neighbor in Likoni donated after I showed her your page.
any update on how things are going in Utrecht?
You're not alone, Sophie. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Greetings from Medina.
it takes guts to ask. Well done. Don't give up. All the best.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Sophie?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about baby formula and diapers, advice is welcome too. Fair thing to want to know.
Stay strong, Sophie. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
Good luck, Sophie. I hope things turn around soon. Don't give up. Thinking of Utrecht.
Is baby formula and diapers the biggest cost or is there more coming?
Baby formula and diapers is $490 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page.
More neighborhoods should do this. Put this on a community board in รankaya this morning. Greetings from รankaya.
Thanks for sharing this, Sophie. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust.
You're not alone, Sophie. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Akron this morning.
