Álvaro is a single parent of four children - help us after a house fire

After a house fire in August, 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 web developer in the evenings, which will triple my income by November, 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 $750 goes: • Rent top-up: $290 • Groceries and school meals: $210 • Childcare and after-school care: $250 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
