Last February I went through a divorce, and I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a retail cashier, 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 May, 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 $1,350 goes:
• Rent top-up: $510
• Childcare and after-school care: $300
• Groceries and school meals: $260
• Course fees and exam costs: $280
I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.
