After a long illness in January, I'm now raising three children under 8 on my own. I work as a care worker, 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 April, 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 $1,850 goes:
• Childcare and after-school care: $790
• Groceries and school meals: $640
• Course fees and exam costs: $420
If you're reading this, thank you.

Thank you all. We're at 1% now ($12). I'm honestly stunned. we've booked the dates and paid the deposit.

Rooting for you, Cameron. Shared this with my family. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Take care.
