Last April I went through a divorce, and I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a part-time receptionist, 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 $450 goes: • Rent top-up: $220 • Course fees and exam costs: $100 • Groceries and school meals: $130 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

      The list at the bottom is the whole picture. rent top-up is the biggest at $220.

  • rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. All the best.

      Best of luck, Sabina. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Tema!
