Help Dalia get through 3 hard months with a toddler and a seven-year-old
Dalia and a toddler and a seven-year-old need a bridge to stability after a long illness.

Last September I went through a long illness, and I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old 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 December, 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 $400 goes:
• Course fees and exam costs: $80
• Groceries and school meals: $100
• Rent top-up: $220
Every share and every dollar helps.
