After the death of my husband in July, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a part-time receptionist, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a medical coder in the evenings, which will triple my income by October, but I need to bridge the gap until then. Some weeks I skip meals so my children can eat. I have never asked anyone for help like this before, and I'm doing it for them. Once I finish my course, I'll pay it forward. Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown. Where the $3,650 goes: • Childcare and after-school care: $970 • Groceries and school meals: $1,000 • Rent top-up: $1,680 Thank you so much. - Alexander

  • Rooting for you, Alexander. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Don't give up. Greetings from Freiburg.

    • Sending good thoughts, Alexander. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from Pune.

      • Hang in there. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Love from Essen

          hope things get better soon. Your post was clear and honest. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Anaheim

          • Wishing you peace, Alexander. Shared this with my family. My husband and I read this together.
