I speculate that "tide" is insufficient by itself, making my feedback limited. I estimate that tide us over between jobs might be the needed phrasing. In which case, it means being provided with sufficient resources that one can still survive the gap between different jobs, and thus the gap in pay.

I lose Job 1 in April, so Job 1 stops paying me money.
I gain Job 2 in June, so Job 2 starts paying me.
The gap between me losing Job 1 and gaining Job 2 is roughly two months -- the length of time in which I am NOT getting paid.
If funds are provided to me via some other resource, then those funds can tide me over during this length of time. I am being provided money
