Since a sudden redundancy in June, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a part-time receptionist, 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 September, 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 $2,950 goes: • Course fees and exam costs: $400 • Rent top-up: $1,350 • Childcare and after-school care: $1,200 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Aria

      Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about course fees and exam costs, advice is welcome too. Fair thing to want to know.

    Wishing you peace, Aria. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Sent it to 14 people at work. Greetings from Mysuru

    • Rooting for you. This could happen to any of us. Don't give up. Love from Gold Coast.

      • Wishing you peace, Aria. Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. All the best!

        • I hope things turn around soon. After 9 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
