After the death of my husband in May, I'm now raising three children under 9 on my own. I work as a driver, 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 September, 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 $650 goes: • Rent top-up: $320 • Childcare and after-school care: $135 • Groceries and school meals: $75 • Course fees and exam costs: $120 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Nabil

Updates from Nabil

  1. Quick update: $110 raised so far (17%). I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  2. Update from Heliopolis: I made the first payment toward rent top-up. We're at 14% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  3. Thank you all. We're at 8% now ($50). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts.
