After a divorce in August, I'm now raising a teenage son and a daughter in primary school on my own. I work as a hairdresser, 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 November, 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 $3,650 goes:
• Rent top-up: $1,700
• Course fees and exam costs: $810
• Childcare and after-school care: $1,140
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

wishing you peace, Verónica. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Blessings!
