After a sudden redundancy in November, I'm now raising three children under 10 on my own. I work as a driver, 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 April, 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: $195 • Groceries and school meals: $170 • Course fees and exam costs: $85 Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

  • Wishing you peace, Wekesa. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Wish I lived closer to Varanasi so I could bring a meal. All the best

    • Wishing you the best, Wekesa. Shared it with a few friends. My husband and I read this together.

      • good luck, Wekesa. Shared it with a few friends. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Love from Uppsala
