Since my partner leaving in August, I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a cleaner, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a pharmacy technician 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.
Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts.
Where the $550 goes:
• Childcare and after-school care: $240
• Rent top-up: $195
• Course fees and exam costs: $115
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

sending strength. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it!
