Campinas
Last August I went through a divorce, and I'm now raising two young children 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 teaching assistant in the evenings, which will triple my income by November, 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 $900 goes: โ€ข Childcare and after-school care: $380 โ€ข Rent top-up: $340 โ€ข Course fees and exam costs: $180 With deep gratitude, Edilene

  • Best of luck, Edilene. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too
