A single father in San Fernando needs help with childcare, groceries and rent while Romeo retrains.

After a house fire in August, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a retail cashier, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a dental nurse 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 $650 goes:
• Rent top-up: $220
• Childcare and after-school care: $210
• Groceries and school meals: $135
• Course fees and exam costs: $85
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Hope you get there. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money!
