Please do help this family. The situation for our friends in tents is unbearable.
Our mattresses are full of water, and so are our clothes.
I’m unable to take a photo to show you because my family is sitting inside the tent trying to stay warm💔

I urgently need help — for tarps for the tent, food, and clothing

Proud to have been involved in this important research, which shows single parent families are most impacted by public debt.

Today with @trusselluk.bsky.social & @opfs.org.uk, using Scotland data from @citizensadvicescot.bsky.social & @stepchange.bsky.social, we’ve launched new research into the public debt crisis. Discover how women are more likely to experience public debt which traps their family in poverty.

Khaled is trying to pay the university fees for him and his sisters- as long as I’ve spoken to Khaled he’s been very focused on finishing his studies
Donations have decreased a lot recently, and we’re still trying to continue our university education despite the difficult circumstances.
Any support or even just sharing can make a big difference. 📚

Thank you from the heart to everyone who has stood by us.

Between 2000 & 2024, the top 1 per cent captured 41 cents of every dollar of wealth generated — while just 1 cent has been shared by the bottom half of humanity. It should alarm us all - first trillionaires within years, while close to half of humanity still lives in poverty.

How did fear become our daily companion?
How can a human live in safety when the sky above them is not a sky, but a threat?

How can we end all wars?
Is dreaming enough?
Or do we still need a kind of courage we keep searching for beneath the rubble?

The situation hasn’t changed food is available, but without money, it’s still difficult.
