After a long illness in February, I'm now raising three children under 10 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 medical coder 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.
Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts.
Where the $3,350 goes:
• Rent top-up: $1,750
• Childcare and after-school care: $1,200
• Course fees and exam costs: $400
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

thinking of you. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Love from Rome.
Wishing you the best, Anh. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.
Keep going, Anh. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Thinking of Parramatta.
