Following a long illness in the family, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Monday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,400. 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 toddler and a baby 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. Funds go to the landlord and nowhere else. Any amount left over after the arrears are cleared will go toward next month's rent. Where the $2,400 goes: โ€ข Utilities in arrears: $230 โ€ข Rent arrears (4 months): $1,900 โ€ข Late fees and court costs: $270 I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support. - Ezekiel

Updates from Ezekiel

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($623 in total) the plan for late fees and court costs is now scheduled. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.

  2. Small update. $360 so far, I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts.

  3. Small update. $542 so far, I made the first payment toward late fees and court costs.
