Mwangi is a single parent of three children under 5 - help us after a long illness

After a long illness in August, I'm now raising three children under 5 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 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 $700 goes: • Rent top-up: $185 • Childcare and after-school care: $220 • Groceries and school meals: $180 • Course fees and exam costs: $115 If you're reading this, thank you.
