After a divorce in August, 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 November, 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 $3,050 goes: • Childcare and after-school care: $570 • Course fees and exam costs: $670 • Rent top-up: $1,810 Glad we found this place. - Karin
