Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $650. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by July, we must leave. I've 1 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 $650 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $380 • Late fees and court costs: $60 • First month of rent as a buffer: $210 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Aravind

    Thanks for sharing this, Aravind. Hope you get there. I hope July is when things finally get easier. Greetings from Barranquilla.

      Take care, Aravind. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 24 people at work. Thinking of Saket.
