Back on our feet: Eun-woo and a toddler and a seven-year-old in Seoul

Eun-woo and a toddler and a seven-year-old need a bridge to stability after the death of my husband.

Since the death of my husband in May, I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a hairdresser, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a web developer 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. Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown. Where the $2,650 goes: • Rent top-up: $1,350 • Childcare and after-school care: $530 • Groceries and school meals: $500 • Course fees and exam costs: $270 Every share and every dollar helps.
