After being laid off and unable to cover rent, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a hospital cleaner in Ottawa and I have a steady income, but I can't find a place that will let me in without the first month, a deposit and references that I'm in the middle of replacing.
I'm looking for a spare room for 3 months. I can pay $250 a month toward bills, I'm tidy and quiet, and I'd be happy to help with cooking, shopping or yard work. I have no pets, I don't smoke, and I have three personal and work references.
I understand that inviting a stranger into your home is a big step. I'd be glad to meet in a public place first and to share my work details.
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

stay strong, Mukesh. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier.
Thinking of you and your family, Mukesh. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Thanks for sharing this, Mukesh. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend
Best of luck, Mukesh. This could happen to any of us. Wish I lived closer to Rajkot so I could bring a meal. God bless.
