Lilian and a toddler and a seven-year-old need a bridge to stability after the death of my husband.

After the death of my husband in June, I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a part-time receptionist, 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.
Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown.
Where the $500 goes:
• Rent top-up: $165
• Childcare and after-school care: $105
• Groceries and school meals: $130
• Course fees and exam costs: $100
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
