Saint-Denis
After my partner leaving in December, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a cleaner, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as an electrician 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 $2,900 goes: • Course fees and exam costs: $600 • Childcare and after-school care: $1,000 • Rent top-up: $1,300 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Delphine
