After a house fire in June, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a cleaner, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a web developer 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 $850 goes: • Rent top-up: $360 • Childcare and after-school care: $170 • Groceries and school meals: $160 • Course fees and exam costs: $160 Thanks for being kind about this. - Joshua

  • Hang in there, Joshua. This could happen to any of us

    • Take care, Joshua. Hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
