Last August I went through a long illness, and I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a hairdresser, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a teaching assistant 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. Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts. Where the $4,800 goes: • Rent top-up: $1,700 • Childcare and after-school care: $1,450 • Groceries and school meals: $910 • Course fees and exam costs: $740 Thank you for reading my story. - Luna
