Very sorry to read this.

What I dont understand is how a school can make a single mother pay at the expense of other necessities.

There was a time when widows and orphans weren’t oppressed the way they are today.

My heart breaks.

Very disturbing to read that a Single Mother who’s struggling financially needs funds raised for schooling.
This Mom needs TLC from the community, as well as FREE SCHOOLING, & Monthly Financial Help to defray her cost of Rent & Food.

Disgusting

Once upon a Time the ones that ran the mosdos would raise the necessary funds either from wealthy donors or parents of the school that were able to help others.
What has happened?

What's the Matter Here?

People are bowing down to the Brokers & Developers and the rich, and they have to have their second and 3rd homes and fancy cars and chandeliers. Who has the money to help a struggling single mother??? They have to run off to their second home in the country in their Lexus, etc.
Do you realize the Alter Rebbe says in Tanya that we should not purchase luxuries (like a fancy pillow) if our fellow Jew does not have the basics?

Very disturbing

To all the above commenters: open YOUR wallet and help her!

Terrible terrible stress for the mother

Please help – the mother must remain healthy in all ways for her children . I know firsthand what this feels like . Frightening and completely overwhelming. To the father : Hashem is taking notes on your cruelty.
