Since a long illness in April, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, 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 June, 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 $2,800 goes: • Groceries and school meals: $580 • Course fees and exam costs: $490 • Rent top-up: $1,730 Glad we found this place.

  • This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Mombasa so I could bring a meal. Blessings.

        Praying for you. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Love from Prayagraj.

        • Best of luck, Kevin. 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. God bless

          • sending strength. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Wish I lived closer to St. Petersburg so I could bring a meal

              You're not alone, Kevin. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.

              • Sending good thoughts, Kevin. Your post was clear and honest. Blessings!

                • keep going. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We're a small family in Tlaquepaque but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
