When the restaurant closed in March, I fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $700. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by June, 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. Funds go to the landlord and nowhere else. Any amount left over after the arrears are cleared will go toward next month's rent. Where the $700 goes: • Rent arrears (2 months): $490 • Utilities in arrears: $30 • First month of rent as a buffer: $180 If you're reading this, thank you.

  • can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Naivasha.

    • Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about rent arrears (2 months), advice is welcome too. Let me know if you want more detail.

  • Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Mandaue but we're thinking of you. God bless.
