Since a divorce in July, I'm now raising three children under 11 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.
Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts.
Where the $1,150 goes:
• Rent top-up: $330
• Childcare and after-school care: $350
• Groceries and school meals: $290
• Course fees and exam costs: $180
Every share and every dollar helps.

Best of luck, Sergio. I hope things turn around soon. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Greetings from Buenos Aires.
Best of luck, Sergio. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'll check back for the next update
Thinking of you and your family, Sergio. Shared this with my family. Sent it to 14 people at work. Greetings from Buffalo.
