After the death of my husband in July, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a driver, 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 September, 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 $3,800 goes: • Rent top-up: $1,450 • Childcare and after-school care: $700 • Groceries and school meals: $1,000 • Course fees and exam costs: $650 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  • Take care, Yamini. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps.

      I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. Greetings from Tiruchirappalli.

      • So sorry you're going through this. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Put this on a community board in Anaheim this morning. All the best.

        • Best of luck, Yamini. Shared it with a few friends. God bless.

          • Keep going. I hope things turn around soon. Thinking of London
