After a house fire in April, I'm now raising three children under 10 on my own. I work as a care worker, 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 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $700 goes:
• Rent top-up: $330
• Childcare and after-school care: $120
• Groceries and school meals: $180
• Course fees and exam costs: $70
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Sending good thoughts, Tuấn. Shared it with a few friends. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out!
