After a sudden redundancy in January, I'm now raising three children under 7 on my own. I work as a cleaner, 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 April, 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 $300 goes:
• Childcare and after-school care: $90
• Course fees and exam costs: $80
• Rent top-up: $130
I hope life is good to you.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Sosina?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about childcare and after-school care, advice is welcome too. Appreciate you taking the time.
praying for you, Sosina. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. God bless.
