Last November 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 hairdresser, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a bookkeeper in the evenings, which will triple my income by March, 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 $2,350 goes: • Rent top-up: $1,250 • Course fees and exam costs: $320 • Childcare and after-school care: $780 With deep gratitude, Do-yoon

  • Good luck, Do-yoon. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.

    • Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Seongnam

      • Thank you. If you're in Seongnam I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Let me know if you want more detail.

    • Sending good thoughts, Do-yoon. Hope this works out for you. Greetings from Belo Horizonte.

      • Take care, Do-yoon. Shared this with my family. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.

        • Thinking of you and your family. Looking forward to the next update. Sent it to 17 people at work. All the best.

          • Wishing you the best, Do-yoon. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. It's not much but it's yours. God bless
