Help Rolando get through 6 hard months with four children

Rolando and four children need a bridge to stability after my partner leaving.

Last February I went through my partner leaving, and I'm now raising four 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 web developer in the evenings, which will triple my income by May, 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 $550 goes: • Childcare and after-school care: $170 • Rent top-up: $220 • Course fees and exam costs: $160 I hope life is good to you.

  • Thanks for sharing this, Rolando. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Iloilo City so I could bring a meal. Love from Gliwice.
