Since a divorce in September, I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a driver, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a medical coder 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 $500 goes:
• Groceries and school meals: $120
• Rent top-up: $250
• Course fees and exam costs: $130
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Wishing you peace, Sachin. Shared it with a few friends. After 18 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Leicester.
