Help Rani get through 5 hard months with two young children

Last August I went through a long illness, and I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, 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 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 $550 goes: • Rent top-up: $185 • Childcare and after-school care: $135 • Groceries and school meals: $155 • Course fees and exam costs: $75 Every share and every dollar helps.
