Amélie received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
A sudden layoff left Amélie short on rent for 5 months; help us stay in our home.

After a sudden layoff at the call centre, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,000.
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 two young 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 extra hours at a market stall, 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 $2,000 goes:
• Rent arrears (5 months): $1,550
• First month of rent as a buffer: $350
• Late fees and court costs: $100
Thank you so much.

I hope things turn around soon. My neighbor in Nakuru donated after I showed her your page. All the best!
thanks for sharing this. This could happen to any of us. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. God bless.
so sorry you're going through this, Amélie. Looking forward to the next update. All the best.
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Love from Springfield.
