Back on our feet: Inès and three children under 11 in Nice

After my partner leaving, Inès is raising three children under 11 alone and needs $3,300 to stay afloat for 5 months.

Last June I went through my partner leaving, and I'm now raising three children under 11 on my own. I work as a care worker, 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 August, 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 $3,300 goes: • Rent top-up: $1,050 • Childcare and after-school care: $1,300 • Groceries and school meals: $650 • Course fees and exam costs: $300 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Inès
