Here is the story:
“Hi Gilbert
Sorry to bother you sir.
I’m a divorcee with 4 children. Currently I’m not working due to the situation that I’m facing.
My ex-husband is also making my life difficult by not agreeing to the school transfer of my kids.
So I have to send them to and fro from Marsiling to Toa Payoh everyday. With the tight finances, I’m trying to survive for the kids school, transportation, food etc. And the kids’ father are not giving their maintenance and I’m still waiting for the next mediation for the maintenance.
If anyone could help to bless us with food ration I would be happy enough. As the kids are growing they tend to eat more. And I am left with nothing now.
I know the kids are my responsibility but with my tight situation I can’t find a full-time job as no one will hire me due to my timing – I need to send and fetch the kids.”
