Since my partner leaving in September, 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 teaching assistant 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 $700 goes:
• Rent top-up: $320
• Childcare and after-school care: $105
• Groceries and school meals: $155
• Course fees and exam costs: $120
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Updates from Mahin
Small update. $135 so far, I made the first payment toward rent top-up.
Small update. $155 so far, I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts.
Update from Kanpur: we've started the first stage. We're at 1% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

Shared it with a few friends. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Coventry.
Hope things get better soon, Mahin. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
