After a long illness in August, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a hairdresser, 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 November, 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 $300 goes: • Groceries and school meals: $110 • Course fees and exam costs: $100 • Childcare and after-school care: $90 Every share and every dollar helps.

Updates from Dayo

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($198 in total) I made the first payment toward childcare and after-school care. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
