After a house fire in January, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a part-time receptionist, 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. Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts. Where the $800 goes: โ€ข Rent top-up: $240 โ€ข Childcare and after-school care: $330 โ€ข Groceries and school meals: $135 โ€ข Course fees and exam costs: $95 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to. - Yaowalak
