Underprivileged M’sian Girl Secretly Sells Keychains to Afford Ingredients for Her Class Potluck

Malaysian mum, @sweetnazya1, took to her TikTok account to share how her young daughter had secretly sold homemade keychains so that she could afford the ingredients to make chocolate cups to participate in her class potluck activity.

She wrote, “To the class teacher and the other students who are seeing this, my apologies for our shortcomings in tomorrow’s school feast (January 17). I actually didn’t include my daughter’s name because we don’t have the money to make anything. We really don’t, it’s not a joke.”

“But, my daughter wants to because she said every one of her classmates is participating.”

She went on to explain that her daughter had included her name for the class potluck and secretly started selling keychains by using the DIY keychain set that she had previously bought for her daughter.

Her daughter would even stay up late, without her mother’s knowledge, to make keychains to sell.

“She saved the money she got from her sales and immediately bought ingredients for her dish.”

The little girl bought small containers and ingredients to make chocolate cups, a dish that the little girl also made herself!

She went on to thank her daughter for being resourceful.

“My daughter, thank you. We’ll struggle first, okay? Believe that not long from now, Allah will allow us to experience an easy life. Allah’s tests are not long, it’s just for a little while. When our time comes, Allah will smile upon us,”

“I know there are some people (on TikTok) who know my daughter as our children go to the same school. Forgive us if what she made is not tasty or small in portion,” she added.
