Abdul received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent

A court summons for non-payment arrived last week. Abdul needs $500 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Gazipur.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $500. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, we must leave. I have three school-aged children at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. I have started working two part-time jobs, and I'm applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here. The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done. Where the $500 goes: • Rent arrears (5 months): $360 • Late fees and court costs: $50 • Utilities in arrears: $15 • First month of rent as a buffer: $75 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

  2. Update from Gazipur: the first invoice got paid this week. We're at 37% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  3. Thank you all. We're at 70% now ($351). I'm honestly stunned. I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts.

      Hang in there. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Wish I lived closer to São Paulo so I could bring a meal.

            so sorry you're going through this. Shared this with my family. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from León.
