Since a divorce in June, 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 web developer in the evenings, which will triple my income by September, 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 $3,800 goes: • Rent top-up: $1,700 • Childcare and after-school care: $570 • Groceries and school meals: $920 • Course fees and exam costs: $610 If you're reading this, thank you. - Sneha

    Sending love, Sneha. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We're a small family in Islamabad but we're thinking of you.

      Sending good thoughts, Sneha. This could happen to any of us. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
