Dwarka
After the death of my husband in August, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a part-time receptionist, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a teaching assistant 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. Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown. Where the $600 goes: • Rent top-up: $210 • Childcare and after-school care: $140 • Groceries and school meals: $110 • Course fees and exam costs: $140 Glad we found this place. - Priya

          You're not alone, Priya. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Bogor.

          • Thinking of you, Priya. Hope you get there. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Love from Rio de Janeiro.

              I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Oakland but we're thinking of you. All the best!

                good luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Corpus Christi so I could bring a meal. Thinking of Dwarka

                • Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My husband and I read this together. Greetings from Ribeirão Preto

                  • Wishing you peace. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Dwarka.
