After my partner leaving in July, I'm now raising three children under 8 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 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 $450 goes: • Childcare and after-school care: $175 • Groceries and school meals: $95 • Rent top-up: $180 Every share and every dollar helps. - Queen

  • Thinking of you, Queen. Hope you get there. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double.

    • sending good thoughts, Queen. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. It's not much but it's yours.
