After a divorce in August, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a teaching assistant in the evenings, which will triple my income by November, 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 $2,550 goes:
• Rent top-up: $910
• Childcare and after-school care: $420
• Groceries and school meals: $710
• Course fees and exam costs: $510
Thank you for reading my story.

Praying for you, Ghada. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon
sending good thoughts, Ghada. Gave what I could, wish it was more. God bless.
Best of luck. Shared it with a few friends. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Blessings.
Stay strong. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Thinking of Dammam.
Sending love. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I have a 11 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Love from Salerno
