Since a sudden redundancy in February, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a driver, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a medical coder in the evenings, which will triple my income by May, 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 $450 goes:
• Rent top-up: $210
• Groceries and school meals: $110
• Course fees and exam costs: $130
Every share and every dollar helps.

Hope it all works out, Hitesh. Hope this works out for you. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Belo Horizonte
Hang in there, Hitesh. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. God bless!
Hang in there. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Stellenbosch.
Hope this works out for you. We're a small family in Tijuana but we're thinking of you.
