After a divorce in April, I'm now raising three children under 9 on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, 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 July, 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 $2,700 goes:
• Rent top-up: $1,950
• Course fees and exam costs: $350
• Groceries and school meals: $400
Thank you so much.

Thanks for sharing this. Hope you get there. I hope July is when things finally get easier.
Sending strength, Nicholas. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My neighbor in Winston-Salem donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
Praying for you, Nicholas. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Jodhpur.
keep going. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Wish I lived closer to Laredo so I could bring a meal. All the best.
Wishing you peace. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Dwarka but we're thinking of you. God bless!
So sorry you're going through this. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Best of luck, Nicholas. Shared this with my family. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Take care
Praying for you. I hope things turn around soon. After 11 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
