After a divorce in March, I'm now raising a teenage son and a daughter in primary school on my own. I work as a retail cashier, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as an electrician in the evenings, which will triple my income by June, 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 $350 goes:
• Course fees and exam costs: $75
• Childcare and after-school care: $185
• Groceries and school meals: $90
Thank you so much.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Teodoro!
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. course fees and exam costs comes first ($75) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks for looking so closely.
Best of luck, Teodoro. Hope this works out for you. God bless.
