Veracruz
After a sudden redundancy in August, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a retail cashier, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a pharmacy technician 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. Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts. Where the $1,050 goes: • Rent top-up: $340 • Childcare and after-school care: $450 • Course fees and exam costs: $260 I hope life is good to you.

    Wishing you peace, Daniela. This could happen to any of us. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Veracruz.
