Last June I went through my partner leaving, and I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a retail cashier, 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 September, 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 $3,750 goes: • Rent top-up: $2,100 • Childcare and after-school care: $1,100 • Course fees and exam costs: $550 Thank you for reading my story. - Lea

                Rent top-up is $2,100 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. Appreciate you taking the time.
