Hi my name is leasa, I would just like to start off with saying that writing this is very hard for me as I’ve never had to ask anyone for help I’m normally the person that helps other people in need but I don’t know what else to do and me and my family are in crisis and we really need your help! I moved to South Africa from the UK nearly 5 years ago with my family and at first it was really hard moving away from everything you know and love to move to a country where you have no family or friends and having to start your life all over again. It took some time but we settled in and made it work and life was good it’s such a beautiful country with the most beautiful people a really special place. When I moved here I had a job that I loved, food on the plate and a roof over my head which in South Africa I felt very lucky to have as there our so many people here that doesn’t have that.. I moved here with a dream that one day I would raise money to donate to a charity and help build a orphanage to help all age children to give them a roof over there heads a bed to sleep on and food in there tummy’s, this is me I’m a giver not taker that’s why writing this is so hard. Before I moved to South Africa i came here to visit a few times and when I went back home to work in the UK teaching my Zumba fitness classes i donated my whole months money from one on my classes to bring back to South Africa to help people in need which was so amazing and we raised alot of money dancing and having fun in class that help alot families and nursery’s for kids. In the last 5 months me and my children's life has been turned up side down going from having a home to living in a Airbnb with no stability and no money we couldn’t work because we didn’t know from one day to the next if we was still going to be able to pay to stay in this Airbnb because my husband was sending money back to us to pay for it and he couldn’t get enough.We even struggled to buy food at times it was a roof over our heads or food and we did roof over our heads so that we wasn’t on the streets.My husband is saying he can’t help anymore with money which now leaves us with nothing and not being able to pay for us to no longer stay where we are to and leaving us homeless! We are all really scared and we don’t know what to do anymore. With this money it will give us the chance to get our life’s back, get back on our feet and go back to work and start living again as our life’s over the last 5 months has been really hard for us all with the kids dad leaving us all here alone after 26 years of being together he went away to work for 2 weeks and never came back and we was left here all on our own not knowing what we did wrong because that’s how it felt like to us!! So now we have to try and rebuild our life without him and start all over again on our own which is really scary for us all.With the money that will hopefully be raised it could help us find a affordable rental home for us all to move into and give us some stability again to get back on our feet and get back to work and kids back into school to rebuild our life’s together as a family.
