Last January I went through a house fire, and I'm now raising three children under 11 on my own. I work as a hairdresser, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a web developer in the evenings, which will triple my income by June, 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 $700 goes: • Rent top-up: $195 • Childcare and after-school care: $260 • Groceries and school meals: $125 • Course fees and exam costs: $120 Thanks for reading all this.
