My father beats mom and drives us outside

Hello, my name is Sofia. I am 15 years old and I am from Belarus. I have a very critical situation now. My father beats mom, mom wants a divorce, but we don’t have money to divorce and move. Nobody wants to help us. My mother broke her arm the other day, and now she has no protection. I can’t stop dad. I'm afraid that in one moment everything may end badly. I ask you to help!

We are a family of four: mother, I, brother and despot father who is addicted to alcohol. I am in school, graduated from 9th grade. My brother is 19 years old, he graduated from teacher training college and will work from August. Mom is 52 years old, she sews things to order, but now she can’t work, because her arm is broken.

Father works, but he is very greedy and gives us very little money. He often makes scandals and is prone to sexism, oppresses us with his behavior, and uses violence against his mother.

When we contacted the police, he was detained only for a day, and then mother had to pay a fine... And we also have animals, because we are volunteers and help homeless cats and dogs. We decided to leave father. Mom bought a house from the state property fund in another area. They need repairs, but we decided to move now, because we can no longer tolerate the bullying of a drunken father - a monster.

Therefore, we urgently need money for transportation costs and home improvement. Mom began secretly from her father to sell household items and clothes. But this money is not enough, things are sold slowly. There is no one else to help us, so I turned to Airfunding for help. Because we have a desperate situation.

Please help us!
