After the death of my husband in February, 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 teaching assistant in the evenings, which will triple my income by June, 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 $800 goes: • Rent top-up: $370 • Childcare and after-school care: $210 • Groceries and school meals: $80 • Course fees and exam costs: $140 Glad we found this place.

      Thank you. If you're in Bacolod I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. I'll keep the page updated.

      Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Bacolod
