After the death of my husband in June, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a retail cashier, 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 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 $1,050 goes: • Rent top-up: $420 • Childcare and after-school care: $340 • Groceries and school meals: $175 • Course fees and exam costs: $115 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

  • You're not alone, Araceli. I hope things turn around soon. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
