Could you host Olivia? A room for 3 months
Hosting Olivia would give a hardworking a call-centre agent the stability to find a new place.

After a house fire, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a call-centre agent in Pretoria and I have a steady income, but I can't find a place that will let me in without the first month, a deposit and references that I'm in the middle of replacing.
I'm looking for a spare room for 2 months. I can pay $70 a month toward bills, I'm tidy and quiet, and I'd be happy to help with cooking, shopping or yard work. I have no pets, I don't smoke, and I have two work references.
I understand that inviting a stranger into your home is a big step. I'd be glad to meet in a public place first and to share my work details.
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Hope it all works out, Olivia. Shared this with my family
Stay strong, Olivia. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did.
I hope things turn around soon. I hope August is when things finally get easier. All the best
Sending love. This could happen to any of us. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Take care.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. Sent it to 20 people at work. Greetings from Mangaluru.
