Last May I went through my partner leaving, and I'm now raising twin daughters on my own. I work as a cleaner, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a dental nurse in the evenings, which will triple my income by September, 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 $500 goes:
• Rent top-up: $230
• Childcare and after-school care: $85
• Groceries and school meals: $115
• Course fees and exam costs: $70
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Enugu!
Thank you. If you're in Enugu I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. I'll keep the page updated.
thinking of you and your family. This could happen to any of us. My colleague had a similar thing happen so this one hit home
Keep going. Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
