Since the death of my husband in March, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a care worker, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a dental nurse in the evenings, which will triple my income by May, 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $600 goes:
• Rent top-up: $340
• Course fees and exam costs: $105
• Childcare and after-school care: $155
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Updates from Khang
Quick update: $176 raised so far (29%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.
Update from Hồ Chí Minh City: I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. We're at 14% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
