Tel Aviv
After my partner leaving in August, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a care worker, 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 December, 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 $1,650 goes: • Childcare and after-school care: $550 • Course fees and exam costs: $580 • Groceries and school meals: $520 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

                    • Kobi Tomer DayanOwnerAnswer

                      Sure. The biggest one is childcare and after-school care, $550. The rest is in the list at the bottom of the post and I'll upload receipts as I pay each one. Fair thing to want to know.
