Since a divorce in August, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a hairdresser, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a bookkeeper 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 $950 goes: • Rent top-up: $540 • Course fees and exam costs: $210 • Groceries and school meals: $200 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Eduardo

Updates from Eduardo

  1. Quick update: $151 raised so far (16%). we've started the first stage. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($71 in total) the plan for course fees and exam costs is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  3. 20% there. I made the first payment toward course fees and exam costs. Thank you.
