Since a divorce in February, I'm now raising three children under 7 on my own. I work as a retail cashier, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a pharmacy technician in the evenings, which will triple my income by April, 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 $3,200 goes:
• Rent top-up: $930
• Childcare and after-school care: $1,100
• Groceries and school meals: $730
• Course fees and exam costs: $440
Every share and every dollar helps.
- Jack
