After a house fire in September, I'm now raising three children under 7 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 December, 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 $500 goes:
• Rent top-up: $155
• Childcare and after-school care: $170
• Groceries and school meals: $110
• Course fees and exam costs: $65
With deep gratitude,
Mukasa
