Since a long illness in May, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $1,450 goes:
• Rent top-up: $710
• Childcare and after-school care: $260
• Groceries and school meals: $260
• Course fees and exam costs: $220
With deep gratitude,
Bruno

Sending strength, Bruno. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Sending good thoughts. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Put this on a community board in Los Angeles this morning. Greetings from Los Angeles
Take care, Bruno. Your post was clear and honest. Thinking of Guadalajara!
Hope things get better soon, Bruno. Hope this works out for you. Sent it to 40 people at work. God bless!
Wishing you peace, Bruno. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Wish I lived closer to Quezon City so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Poznań.
wishing you the best. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money
You're not alone. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I'll check back for the next update. Love from Giza.
Wishing you peace. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I went through something like this 10 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Thinking of you, Bruno. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. After 6 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Blessings.
Thinking of you and your family. I hope things turn around soon. We're a small family in Gatineau but we're thinking of you. Love from Gatineau.
Wishing you peace, Bruno. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
Stay strong. Shared this with my family. Put this on a community board in Riverside this morning
Sending love, Bruno. Looking forward to the next update. Blessings!
