After being laid off and unable to cover rent, I'm temporarily without a home. I work as a call-centre agent in Messina 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 3 months. I can pay $110 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Wishing you peace. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. After 20 years in construction I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless
Thinking of you, Rita. Shared it with a few friends. Sent it to 29 people at work. Blessings.
sending strength, Rita. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected
sending love. Shared this with my family. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Onitsha.
Rooting for you, Rita. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I'll check back for the next update.
Good luck, Rita. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. After 21 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Thinking of Messina!
Thanks for sharing this, Rita. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Swansea donated after I showed her your page. God bless.

Sending good thoughts, Rita. Your post was clear and honest. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry.
