Aurélie received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
After a sudden layoff, Aurélie is 3 months behind on rent and has a termination letter from the landlord.

After a car accident that kept me from work for 12 weeks, Aurélie fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $3,400.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, the family must leave.
There are two young children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Aurélie has started working weekend shifts, and is 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 $3,400 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,500
• Late fees and court costs: $185
• Utilities in arrears: $135
• First month of rent as a buffer: $580
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Thanks for sharing this. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money.
Best of luck. Shared it with a few friends. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Greetings from Cape Town
Best of luck, Maëlle. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Take care.
how is Aurélie doing now?
Sending love. Shared this with my family. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too.
Thinking of you, Maëlle. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Thinking of Nice
Thanks for sharing this. It takes guts to ask. Well done. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Thinking of Nice
