Ganga is a single parent of two young children - help us after the death of my husband

Since the death of my husband in December, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a retail cashier, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a teaching assistant in the evenings, which will triple my income by March, 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 $550 goes: • Rent top-up: $220 • Childcare and after-school care: $100 • Groceries and school meals: $115 • Course fees and exam costs: $115 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.
