After my partner leaving in August, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a retail cashier, 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 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $800 goes:
• Rent top-up: $290
• Childcare and after-school care: $270
• Groceries and school meals: $170
• Course fees and exam costs: $70
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Sending good thoughts, Kato. Hope this works out for you. All the best.
rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Thinking of Eldoret.
Shared it with a few friends. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Lagos
