Last July I went through a divorce, and I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a cleaner, 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 September, 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: $100 • Childcare and after-school care: $185 • Rent top-up: $165 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  2. Small update. $78 so far, I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts.

  3. Quick update: $25 raised so far (6%). the plan for rent top-up is now scheduled. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  • Thinking of you and your family, Thắng. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Put this on a community board in Rochester this morning.

    • Wishing you peace. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Love from Kyoto.
