Last April I went through a long illness, and I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a hairdresser, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a pharmacy technician in the evenings, which will triple my income by July, 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 $4,650 goes: • Rent top-up: $1,700 • Childcare and after-school care: $1,200 • Groceries and school meals: $1,150 • Course fees and exam costs: $600 Every share and every dollar helps.

  • I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My cousin had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Blessings

    • I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We're a small family in Awka but we're thinking of you. Take care

      • it takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 6 years ago and strangers helped me out.

        • Hope this works out for you. I hope July is when things finally get easier. Blessings.

            hang in there, Sneha. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. After 7 years in social work I know how hard it is to ask for anything. All the best!
