Help Isabelle get through 5 hard months with three children under 12

Isabelle and three children under 12 need a bridge to stability after my partner leaving.

Since my partner leaving in June, 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 a dental nurse 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. Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts. Where the $2,800 goes: • Groceries and school meals: $420 • Rent top-up: $1,650 • Course fees and exam costs: $730 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it. - Isabelle

      Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We're a small family in Prayagraj but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Sheffield.

      • Hope things get better soon, Isabelle. Your post was clear and honest. Greetings from Thane
