After a divorce in August, I'm now raising three children under 6 on my own. I work as a hairdresser, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a web developer 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 $2,550 goes:
• Course fees and exam costs: $640
• Childcare and after-school care: $1,300
• Groceries and school meals: $610
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Rooting for you, Leo. Shared this with my family. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless.
Hope it all works out. Your post was clear and honest. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
