Recipient story
Young mum of 5 children impacted by domestic violence is experiencing extreme financial hardship and rental stress.
Domestic & Family Violence
GIVIT
I am supporting a young, single, mum with 5 children (youngest is 6 months old). The family experienced significant family violence over several years; this has greatly impacted the mental wellbeing of the older children with one recently presenting with increased risk taking behaviours and behaviours consistent with family violence. The family's circumstances have changed again recently when the mum's new relationship ended shortly after the baby's birth. The baby's father, who was the primary income earner, moved out of the home, placing the family in rental stress; almost all of the part-time income the mother earns is put towards rent. The mother is being supported to access social housing to relieve this pressure. During this time being able to provide financial support towards areas such as groceries and fuel will contribute to further relieving the financial burden of rent.
