After my partner leaving in November, I'm now raising a teenage son and a daughter in primary school on my own. I work as a retail cashier, 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 February, 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 $2,400 goes: • Rent top-up: $1,300 • Childcare and after-school care: $460 • Groceries and school meals: $320 • Course fees and exam costs: $320 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Hyun-woo

        thinking of you and your family, Hyun-woo. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Los Angeles this morning. All the best.

        • Ephrem Getachew Mulugeta

          Rooting for you, Hyun-woo. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

          • Mazen Mahmoud Maalouf
