A single parent in Rosario needs help with childcare, groceries and rent while Ramón retrains.

Last August I went through my partner leaving, and I'm now raising a teenage son and a daughter in primary school 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 December, 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 $650 goes:
• Course fees and exam costs: $110
• Childcare and after-school care: $140
• Rent top-up: $400
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
