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: โ€ข Childcare and after-school care: $570 โ€ข Course fees and exam costs: $670 โ€ข Rent top-up: $1,810 Glad we found this place. - Karin

                sending love. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Busan this morning

                • Sending good thoughts. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Take care.
