How can I make money really quickly?

I'm a student, my family is extremely poor and at the end of the term, I was living off savings from where I worked previously. I'm so poor, my family have no money but they're everything and I need to get them Christmas presents, especially for my two year old sister. I feel so stressed not having any money for the next 3 weeks. I would ask my real dad for money but he abused me and I don't want him abusing me again because him giving me money will mean he comes back in my life.

To get some money fast...

Pet or baby sitting - people travel a lot for the holidays.

Look to a temp agency where you can get some money for a day's work. As it's Christmas certain industries get overwhelmed and may have some work.

If you have a vehicle you can do Uber/Lyft. There are other 'gig economy' kinda jobs you can do of that nature.

You can also pawn/sell shit, which may be the best way to get money NOW for a few presents.
