Last April I went through a divorce, and I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a driver, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a teaching assistant 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 $3,000 goes:
• Rent top-up: $940
• Childcare and after-school care: $870
• Groceries and school meals: $680
• Course fees and exam costs: $510
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
Updates from Océane
Update from Paris: I made the first payment toward groceries and school meals. We're at 19% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
