Envigado
Last April I went through a divorce, and I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a care worker, 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 August, 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. Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts. Where the $1,250 goes: • Rent top-up: $540 • Childcare and after-school care: $250 • Groceries and school meals: $270 • Course fees and exam costs: $190 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
