Bilal received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
The loss of a second income left Bilal short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

When my hours were cut in half in August, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Monday a notice to vacate 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 December, we must leave.
I have a teenager still in school 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 evenings as a cleaner, 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 (3 months): $300
• Late fees and court costs: $50
• Utilities in arrears: $30
• First month of rent as a buffer: $120
Thank you so much.

Hope things get better soon, Bilal. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Put this on a community board in Sylhet this morning. All the best.
