How should money provided by philanthropists for orphans living with their grandmother and their employed mother be handled, taking into account the needs of the grandmother, the household, and daily expenses? Is the spending restricted to the orphans only, or does it include household expenses?

The grandmother does not have the right to dispose of her two grandchildren's money unless there is a will from the father. Otherwise, the matter must be referred to the Sharia (definition) court or Islamic centers to appoint a guardian. She may spend from their money to pay electricity and water bills for their benefit. If she is poor, she may eat with them in a reasonable manner.
