After a sudden redundancy in August, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, 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 November, 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 $1,100 goes:
• Rent top-up: $770
• Groceries and school meals: $220
• Course fees and exam costs: $110
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hope you get there. After 6 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Xalapa
sending good thoughts, Jimena. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
Hope things get better soon. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.
