Since my partner leaving in August, I'm now raising four children 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 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $1,800 goes:
• Course fees and exam costs: $260
• Childcare and after-school care: $790
• Groceries and school meals: $750
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Thinking of you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. It's not much but it's yours. Thinking of Málaga.
wishing you the best, Bruno. Gave what I could, wish it was more.
Wishing you peace. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
Wishing you the best. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
