H. is a single mother of two, raising her children on her own. The father tries to stay in touch but does not provide financial support or pay child support. The entire burden of providing for the family falls on H., who feels that this keeps her stuck and prevents her from pursuing education or growth that could help her escape the cycle of poverty. She lives under constant financial stress and does everything she can to meet her children’s basic needs — but she is in desperate need of outside support in order to give them what they truly need for their health and proper development.
