Bangkok

Since a long illness in March, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a school kitchen assistant, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as an electrician in the evenings, which will triple my income by May, 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 $500 goes: • Groceries and school meals: $160 • Course fees and exam costs: $110 • Childcare and after-school care: $230 Thanks for being kind about this. - Yaowalak

Updates from Yaowalak

Small update. $277 so far, I made the first payment toward course fees and exam costs.
Thank you all. We're at 35% now ($177). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for course fees and exam costs is now scheduled.
Good news. Because of your gifts ($70 in total) I made the first payment toward groceries and school meals. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
