Last January I went through a divorce, and I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a cleaner, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a dental nurse in the evenings, which will triple my income by May, 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 $600 goes: • Rent top-up: $360 • Childcare and after-school care: $180 • Course fees and exam costs: $60 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Aarti

  • Hope this works out for you. After 6 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything

    • Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Thinking of Nagpur.
