After a sudden redundancy in August, I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a cleaner, 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 $2,750 goes:
• Course fees and exam costs: $670
• Groceries and school meals: $780
• Rent top-up: $1,300
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Hope it all works out, Mahmoud. Your post was clear and honest. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Love from Haarlem!
So sorry you're going through this. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Wish I lived closer to Gliwice so I could bring a meal. Greetings from Sherbrooke.
Sending strength, Mahmoud. It takes guts to ask. Well done.
