After a divorce in May, I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a care worker, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a web developer in the evenings, which will triple my income by July, 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 $350 goes: โ€ข Course fees and exam costs: $65 โ€ข Childcare and after-school care: $120 โ€ข Groceries and school meals: $165 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people. - Radhika

Updates from Radhika

  1. Update from Nagpur: I made the first payment toward childcare and after-school care. We're at 61% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  2. Update from Nagpur: I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. We're at 24% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  3. Wanted to say thank you properly. 14% funded and we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. - Radhika
