Bathroom for my mother

Hello everybody,

My name is Krisztina and I would like to raise some money for my mother.

It is very hard for me to start my story but I try to tell everything

about her situation. I am from a very poor family from Hungary. My mum

always told me to learn a language, go to school because that's one

of the most important things in life. 'Noone can take the knowledge from

you.' she said. That's why I try to use my English knowledge now, to

help her.

She is living in a small town in Hungary, in a crumbly

house with my brother. There's two bedrooms in the house, a kitchen and a

bathroom.
This is the house:

There's no hot water in the house so everytime my mother wants to do the

washing up or when she wants to have a bath she has to put some water

onto the stove in big a pan and boil it. It is very hard for her...just

imagine...how many times do you do the washing up a day? But this is not

just the only problem. The walls are mouldy and wet, the floor is

falling apart...
This is the bathroom:

I gave her my washing machine to help her a bit but this was a few years

ago. It is broken at the moment and she doesn't have money to buy even a

used one, so she's washing all of the clothes by hand.

They don't have a toilet inside the house, they are using a toilet outside. This is one of the saddest parts of this story.

I always try to help them as much as I can, but I can't save enough money

for them on my own to refurbish the whole house and make my mum's life

easier. I want to give back the care and love I got from her by helping

her everytime she needs something. She never tells me any problems

because she's stubborn and doesn't like to complain but I always know

about it. I didn't tell anybody that I try to raise money for her,

I can't risk it to be seen by any of my family members. If I could

raise the money it would be a big surprise for her and I would be the

happiest person in the world to help her. I would use the money to

refurbish the house,mainly the bathroom and get the hot water in, buy a

boiler for her and build a toilet inside the house.
This is my mum and me a few years ago:

This is my first try on this site and I would be very thankful if I could

make it! This means a lot to me, helping my loved one to have an easier

everyday life is more than a challenge it's one of my life goals!

If you would like to help my mum please donate for this cause even if it's

just a penny, it helps my mum to have a house she deserves!

I would like to say a BIG thank you for everyone who supports this cause!
