Since a divorce in June, I'm now raising two young children 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 medical coder in the evenings, which will triple my income by October, 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 $200 goes:
• Groceries and school meals: $90
• Childcare and after-school care: $70
• Course fees and exam costs: $40
Thanks for being kind about this.

Best of luck. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
So sorry you're going through this, Opio. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My husband and I read this together. Blessings
