After a sudden redundancy in July, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a cleaner, 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 November, 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 $1,300 goes:
• Rent top-up: $790
• Groceries and school meals: $290
• Childcare and after-school care: $220
Glad we found this place.

Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I went through something like this 7 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Sending strength, Nuria. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Wish I lived closer to Manchester so I could bring a meal. Love from Santos.
Sending strength, Nuria. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Blessings.
