After my partner leaving in June, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a driver, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a bookkeeper in the evenings, which will triple my income by October, 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 $2,950 goes:
• Rent top-up: $760
• Childcare and after-school care: $1,100
• Groceries and school meals: $620
• Course fees and exam costs: $470
Every share and every dollar helps.

Thanks for sharing this, Imad. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I hope October is when things finally get easier.
sending love, Imad. Shared it with a few friends. My neighbor in New Delhi donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Liverpool!
Good luck. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Blessings
Keep going. This could happen to any of us. Greetings from Semarang.

Hang in there, Imad. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I went through something like this 9 years ago and strangers helped me out. Love from London.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Imad
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. rent top-up is the biggest at $760.
Wishing you the best, Imad. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Daegu.
thinking of you. Hope this works out for you!
Hang in there, Imad. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. All the best.

So sorry you're going through this, Imad. Your post was clear and honest. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Liverpool.
