After my partner leaving in May, 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 pharmacy technician in the evenings, which will triple my income by August, 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 $1,850 goes:
• Rent top-up: $960
• Childcare and after-school care: $370
• Groceries and school meals: $320
• Course fees and exam costs: $200
Every share and every dollar helps.

how is Ioannis doing now?
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Wish I lived closer to Bacolod so I could bring a meal. Love from Cầu Giấy.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Ioannis.
Rent top-up is $960 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page.
