After a long illness in July, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a retail cashier, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a pharmacy technician 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 $450 goes: • Groceries and school meals: $70 • Rent top-up: $320 • Course fees and exam costs: $60 Thanks for reading all this. - Sarita

  • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Sarita.

    • Sure. The biggest one is groceries and school meals, $70. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for asking.

  • Wishing you peace. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless

    • shared it with a few friends. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Blessings.

      • Take care, Sarita. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Thinking of Bhaktapur.

        • Stay strong. Your post was clear and honest. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Thinking of Bhaktapur.

          • Keep going, Sarita. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My neighbor in Tangier donated after I showed her your page. God bless.
