Last March I went through a house fire, and I'm now raising three children under 10 on my own. I work as a part-time receptionist, 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 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $450 goes:
• Rent top-up: $200
• Childcare and after-school care: $105
• Groceries and school meals: $90
• Course fees and exam costs: $55
Thank you so much.

Good luck, Shima. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Love from Pune.
Best of luck. Shared this with my family. After 30 years in engineering I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Love from Bonny
Best of luck, Shima. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. After 20 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Cox's Bazar.
