Last April I went through a divorce, and I'm now raising twin daughters 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 web developer in the evenings, which will triple my income by August, 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: $155
• Childcare and after-school care: $150
• Groceries and school meals: $160
• Course fees and exam costs: $35
With deep gratitude,
Lukman

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Lukman
Rent top-up is $155 of it. Everything else is listed in the story and nothing outside that list comes out of this page. It helps to be asked.
Sending love, Lukman. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I'm in customer support myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Keep going, Lukman. I hope things turn around soon. Greetings from Geelong.
