43yo indigenous woman who managed to leave her abusive husband in 2019 & travel interstate. Since then, she has had constant child custody battles which has resulted in her losing custody of her 10yo child. The financial strain that came with leaving her ex & fighting for custody of her child, left her homeless. She has since found accommodation in a housing commission house & is currently on Jobseeker. This has left furnishing the house a difficult task, with essentials like a working fridge and washing machine being overlooked. Before escaping her ex, she owned her own house, ran a business & had custody of her daughter. Now starting over is difficult & everyday feels like a battle for her, her mental health is especially suffering. She is still fighting for her daughter though & will never give up on her. She has a room for her at her house but needs essentials like a bed, clothing, & toys for her. Any help we can offer this brave woman would be greatly appreciated.
