Yusuf is a single parent of three children under 12 - help us after my partner leaving
Yusuf and three children under 12 need a bridge to stability after my partner leaving.

Since my partner leaving in August, I'm now raising three children under 12 on my own. I work as a hairdresser, 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 October, 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 $900 goes:
• Rent top-up: $440
• Childcare and after-school care: $180
• Groceries and school meals: $190
• Course fees and exam costs: $90
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Keep going, Yusuf. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Love from Jodhpur.
