Berlin
After a sudden redundancy in August, I'm now raising two young 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 web developer 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 $2,750 goes: • Groceries and school meals: $590 • Childcare and after-school care: $560 • Rent top-up: $1,600 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Hannah

    So sorry you're going through this. This could happen to any of us. I have a 12 year old who wants to send good wishes too. God bless

      Hope you get there. After 6 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best
