Since a sudden redundancy in September, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a hairdresser, 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 October, 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 $400 goes: โ€ข Course fees and exam costs: $85 โ€ข Groceries and school meals: $115 โ€ข Childcare and after-school care: $200 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Muthoni
