After a long illness in August, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a hairdresser, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a dental nurse 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 $700 goes:
• Rent top-up: $280
• Childcare and after-school care: $210
• Groceries and school meals: $115
• Course fees and exam costs: $95
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
Updates from Naliaka
Wanted to say thank you properly. 13% funded and I made the first payment toward childcare and after-school care.
Small update. $123 so far, I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts.

stay strong. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Kediri.
