Help Nazrul get through 4 hard months with a teenage son and a daughter in primary school

Nazrul and a teenage son and a daughter in primary school need a bridge to stability after a sudden redundancy.

After a sudden redundancy in July, I'm now raising a teenage son and a daughter in primary school 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 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. Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts. Where the $600 goes: • Rent top-up: $340 • Childcare and after-school care: $95 • Groceries and school meals: $120 • Course fees and exam costs: $45 Thank you so much.
