Petrópolis

Since the death of my husband in April, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, 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 July, 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 $1,450 goes: • Rent top-up: $540 • Childcare and after-school care: $410 • Groceries and school meals: $310 • Course fees and exam costs: $190 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Edson
