Back on our feet: Willow and twin daughters in Ottawa

Since my partner leaving in June, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, 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 September, 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 $2,850 goes: • Rent top-up: $1,550 • Course fees and exam costs: $460 • Childcare and after-school care: $840 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Willow
