After a divorce in April, I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old 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 July, 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 $2,150 goes: • Groceries and school meals: $780 • Childcare and after-school care: $840 • Course fees and exam costs: $530 You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

    Shared this with my family. Greetings from Mombasa.

    • Hope it all works out, Jules. Hope you get there. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it.
