After a house fire in August, I'm now raising a teenage son and a daughter in primary school 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 web developer in the evenings, which will triple my income by November, 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 $650 goes:
• Rent top-up: $340
• Childcare and after-school care: $175
• Course fees and exam costs: $135
Every share and every dollar helps.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Winda!
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. rent top-up comes first ($340) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Thanks, that means a lot.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My neighbor in Hamilton donated after I showed her your page. God bless!
Any update on how things are going in Malang?
Thinking of you and your family. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Wish I lived closer to Swansea so I could bring a meal.
sending love, Winda. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Blessings!
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Malang.
Thank you. If you're in Malang I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.
I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Love from Miami
