Since a divorce in June, I'm now raising twin daughters 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 dental nurse in the evenings, which will triple my income by August, 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 $1,300 goes:
• Rent top-up: $540
• Childcare and after-school care: $380
• Groceries and school meals: $250
• Course fees and exam costs: $130
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

Hope things get better soon, Samuel. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Sent it to 29 people at work. Thinking of Juazeiro do Norte.
Praying for you, Samuel. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
Sending strength, Samuel. I hope things turn around soon!
Hope this works out for you. My husband and I read this together. Love from Madina.
Rooting for you, Samuel. Hope you get there. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
Best of luck, Samuel. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Thinking of Juazeiro do Norte.
