Alexandria

Since my partner leaving in July, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a hairdresser, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a medical coder 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 $400 goes: • Rent top-up: $160 • Childcare and after-school care: $110 • Groceries and school meals: $90 • Course fees and exam costs: $40 Thank you so much. - Jamal

Updates from Jamal

Thank you all. We're at 45% now ($179). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for course fees and exam costs is now scheduled.
Update from Alexandria: the first invoice got paid this week. We're at 36% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Wanted to say thank you properly. 5% funded and the plan for rent top-up is now scheduled.

Wishing you peace, Jamal. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in Houston donated after I showed her your page.
