Last May I went through a house fire, and I'm now raising a toddler and a seven-year-old 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 bookkeeper 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. Money goes toward rent, groceries, after-school care and the cost of my course. I'll give a monthly update with receipts. Where the $600 goes: • Rent top-up: $330 • Childcare and after-school care: $195 • Course fees and exam costs: $75 Glad we found this place. - Vihaan

    Hang in there, Vihaan. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Greetings from San Jose.
