Last July I went through my partner leaving, and I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a cleaner, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a bookkeeper 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. Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown. Where the $500 goes: • Rent top-up: $155 • Childcare and after-school care: $180 • Groceries and school meals: $115 • Course fees and exam costs: $50 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly. - Kipchoge

  • Hope it all works out, Kipchoge. Hope you get there. Blessings.

    • Hang in there, Kipchoge. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money!
