Last June I went through a long illness, and I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a driver, 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 $2,950 goes: • Groceries and school meals: $710 • Course fees and exam costs: $760 • Rent top-up: $1,480 Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure. - Isabel

  • Sending good thoughts, Isabel. Shared it with a few friends. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend.

    • So sorry you're going through this, Isabel. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Please keep us posted. God bless.

      • Praying for you. Shared this with my family. My husband and I read this together. Love from Mardan.
