Logan is a single parent of three children under 8 - help us after a house fire

Logan and three children under 8 need a bridge to stability after a house fire.

Since a house fire in August, I'm now raising three children under 8 on my own. I work as a care worker, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a bookkeeper 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. Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown. Where the $3,500 goes: • Rent top-up: $1,200 • Childcare and after-school care: $710 • Groceries and school meals: $1,000 • Course fees and exam costs: $590 Thanks for reading all this. - Logan
