After my partner leaving in September, I'm now raising four children on my own. I work as a care worker, but my income doesn't cover rent, childcare and groceries. I'm retraining as a pharmacy technician in the evenings, which will triple my income by November, 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 $550 goes: β€’ Childcare and after-school care: $170 β€’ Rent top-up: $250 β€’ Course fees and exam costs: $130 Thank you so much.

Updates from Ziad

  1. Thank you all. We're at 50% now ($275). I'm honestly stunned. the plan for rent top-up is now scheduled.
