Last November I went through the death of my husband, and 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 pharmacy technician in the evenings, which will triple my income by February, 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 $350 goes:
• Groceries and school meals: $155
• Course fees and exam costs: $50
• Childcare and after-school care: $145
If you're reading this, thank you.

So sorry you're going through this, Kirana. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Kediri!
Thank you. If you're in Kediri I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Appreciate you taking the time.
Keep going. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Cincinnati but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Grenoble this morning. Blessings.
