Help Zahra get through 3 hard months with two young children

Last January I went through the death of my husband, and I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a care worker, 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 March, 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 $3,550 goes: • Rent top-up: $1,350 • Childcare and after-school care: $1,200 • Groceries and school meals: $560 • Course fees and exam costs: $440 Thank you for reading my story.
