After a house fire in July, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a care worker, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a dental nurse 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 $2,250 goes: • Rent top-up: $640 • Childcare and after-school care: $360 • Groceries and school meals: $720 • Course fees and exam costs: $530 Thanks for reading all this.

Updates from Hussein
