After the death of my husband in August, I'm now raising three children under 5 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 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 $3,450 goes:
• Rent top-up: $1,900
• Childcare and after-school care: $550
• Groceries and school meals: $500
• Course fees and exam costs: $500
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Quetta but we're thinking of you
Best of luck. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I hope December is when things finally get easier
praying for you, Wyatt. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. God bless
Hang in there, Wyatt. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My husband and I read this together
Sending strength. Your post was clear and honest. Love from Addis Ababa
Wishing you peace, Wyatt. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I'll check back for the next update.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'm in teaching myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. All the best.
Hope it all works out. Looking forward to the next update. Put this on a community board in Thessaloniki this morning. All the best
