Mendoza
Since a divorce in July, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a cleaner, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a pharmacy technician 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. Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts. Where the $850 goes: • Childcare and after-school care: $220 • Course fees and exam costs: $135 • Rent top-up: $495 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Adrián

Updates from Adrián

  1. Update from Mendoza: I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. We're at 24% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  • You're not alone, Adrián. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry

    • You're not alone, Adrián. Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Magelang.

        Keep going, Adrián. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Radom.

        • Good luck, Adrián. I hope things turn around soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Thinking of Mendoza.

          • Keep going, Adrián. Hope you get there. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Calgary.
