Last August I went through a sudden redundancy, and I'm now raising three children under 9 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 bookkeeper in the evenings, which will triple my income by December, 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 $650 goes:
• Rent top-up: $350
• Childcare and after-school care: $125
• Groceries and school meals: $95
• Course fees and exam costs: $80
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Good luck, Kumar. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Sending strength, Kumar. Shared this with my family. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best.
