Support for a single mother after a long illness

After a long illness in April, I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old on my own. I work as a driver, 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 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. Every cent is accounted for. I'll share a simple monthly breakdown. Where the $1,000 goes: • Rent top-up: $590 • Childcare and after-school care: $220 • Groceries and school meals: $190 Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself. - Priscila
