Since a sudden redundancy in September, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a care worker, 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 December, 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 $3,900 goes: • Course fees and exam costs: $730 • Rent top-up: $2,300 • Groceries and school meals: $870 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
