Since the death of my husband in January, I'm now raising three children under 12 on my own. I work as a part-time receptionist, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as an electrician in the evenings, which will triple my income by April, 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 $650 goes: • Course fees and exam costs: $90 • Rent top-up: $360 • Childcare and after-school care: $200 If you're reading this, thank you.

  • Take care, Dayo. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.

    • Stay strong, Dayo. Hope this works out for you. Thinking of Warri.

      • take care, Dayo. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Blessings.

        • You're not alone. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.

          • a secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I hope April is when things finally get easier
