Peyton and a toddler and a seven-year-old need a bridge to stability after the death of my husband.

Since the death of my husband in July, I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a driver, 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 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 $3,650 goes: • Childcare and after-school care: $1,050 • Rent top-up: $2,000 • Groceries and school meals: $600 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
