Help Andi get through 6 hard months with a teenage son and a daughter in primary school
Andi and a teenage son and a daughter in primary school need a bridge to stability after a sudden redundancy.

Since a sudden redundancy in July, I'm now raising a teenage son and a daughter in primary school on my own. I work as a care worker, 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 October, 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 $600 goes:
• Rent top-up: $230
• Childcare and after-school care: $195
• Groceries and school meals: $100
• Course fees and exam costs: $75
If you're reading this, thank you.

I hope things turn around soon. I have a 7 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
Is there anything that isn't money that would help Andi?
Thank you. If you're in Jakarta I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
Sending love, Andi. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Entebbe.
Sending good thoughts, Andi. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Thinking of Jakarta.
