Help Mehul get through 6 hard months with two young children
After my partner leaving, Mehul is raising two young children alone and needs $550 to stay afloat for 6 months.

Last September I went through my partner leaving, and I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a care worker, 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 $550 goes:
• Groceries and school meals: $100
• Course fees and exam costs: $90
• Rent top-up: $360
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
