After the death of my husband in June, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, 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 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. Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts. Where the $500 goes: โ€ข Rent top-up: $330 โ€ข Childcare and after-school care: $115 โ€ข Course fees and exam costs: $55 Glad we found this place. - Zubby

    Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Zubby.

    • Zubby SalamiOwnerAnswerPhoto verified

      Sure. The biggest one is rent top-up, $330. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Thanks for looking so closely.

  • Good luck, Zubby. Gave what I could, wish it was more. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.

    • Sending good thoughts. This could happen to any of us. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.
