Last July I went through a divorce, and I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a hairdresser, 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 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. Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown. Where the $2,050 goes: • Course fees and exam costs: $430 • Childcare and after-school care: $700 • Rent top-up: $920 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

    Thanks for sharing this, Heike. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 2 years ago and strangers helped me out. Take care.
