Teresa is a single parent of two young children - help us after my partner leaving
Teresa and two young children need a bridge to stability after my partner leaving.

Last November I went through my partner leaving, and I'm now raising two young children on my own. I work as a care worker, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries.
I'm retraining as a pharmacy technician in the evenings, which will triple my income by March, 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 $2,300 goes:
• Rent top-up: $840
• Childcare and after-school care: $370
• Groceries and school meals: $660
• Course fees and exam costs: $430
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Wish I lived closer to Caloocan so I could bring a meal. Take care.
Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Málaga
Thank you. If you're in Málaga I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Let me know if you want more detail.
Your post was clear and honest. After 25 years in farming I know how hard it's to ask for anything
Praying for you, Teresa. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day
Gave what I could, wish it was more. We're a small family in Nashik but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Nashik
