Since a house fire in February, I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a part-time receptionist, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as an electrician in the evenings, which will triple my income by May, 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 $750 goes: • Rent top-up: $300 • Childcare and after-school care: $165 • Groceries and school meals: $180 • Course fees and exam costs: $105 Every share and every dollar helps. - Nandini

Updates from Nandini

  1. Thank you all. We're at 6% now ($45). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts. - Nandini

  2. Quick update: $45 raised so far (6%). I made the first payment toward course fees and exam costs. Receipts coming as soon as I have them.

  3. Update from Pune: we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. We're at 5% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
