When my hours were cut in half in July, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,300. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, we must leave. I have two young 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. The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done. Where the $2,300 goes: • Rent arrears (3 months): $1,850 • Utilities in arrears: $260 • Late fees and court costs: $190 Thank you for reading my story. - Danielle

Updates from Danielle

  1. We're at 26% thanks to 18 of you. the first invoice got paid this week. More news soon.

  2. Good news. Because of your gifts ($325 in total) I made the first payment toward utilities in arrears. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

    Stay strong, Danielle. Hope you get there. My neighbor in Quetta donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Los Angeles.

    • Soledad Muñoz

      hope you get there. I'm in construction myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Greetings from Mumbai.

      • Avery Campos

        You're not alone. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Greetings from Scranton

        • Murilo Luiz Miranda

          Rooting for you. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. God bless.

            Thinking of you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Love from Jakarta.
