Back on our feet: Ramón and four children in Alcalá de Henares
A single parent in Alcalá de Henares needs help with childcare, groceries and rent while Ramón retrains.
🇪🇸 Alcalá de Henares, Madrid, Spain2,918 views
Since my partner leaving in June, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, 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 August, 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 $2,550 goes:
• Childcare and after-school care: $720
• Rent top-up: $1,400
• Groceries and school meals: $430
Every share and every dollar helps.
