Since my partner leaving in July, I'm now raising four children 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 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 $600 goes: • Rent top-up: $340 • Childcare and after-school care: $175 • Course fees and exam costs: $85 I hope life is good to you.

Updates from Amit

  1. Update from Agra: the plan for course fees and exam costs is now scheduled. We're at 40% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Quick update: $166 raised so far (28%). the plan for rent top-up is now scheduled. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
