Last August I went through a long illness, and I'm now raising three children under 8 on my own. I work as a retail cashier, 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 October, 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 $2,650 goes:
• Course fees and exam costs: $510
• Groceries and school meals: $1,050
• Childcare and after-school care: $1,090
If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

Wishing you the best, Khadija. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes.
good luck, Khadija. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
sending love, Khadija. Your post was clear and honest. Take care.
hope it all works out, Khadija. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My husband and I read this together. Take care.
