After a car accident that kept me from work for 8 weeks, Frank fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Monday a final eviction notice was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $3,200.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, the family must leave.
There are two young children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Frank has started working two part-time jobs, and is 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 $3,200 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,350
• First month of rent as a buffer: $600
• Late fees and court costs: $250
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Updates from Brooklyn
Good news. Because of your gifts ($2,030 in total) we've started the first stage. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
Wanted to say thank you properly. 23% funded and the plan for first month of rent as a buffer is now scheduled.

So sorry you're going through this, Brooklyn. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 15 years in public service I know how hard it's to ask for anything. Take care.
Hope things get better soon, Brooklyn. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. Greetings from Sukkur.
Wishing you peace, Brooklyn. Shared it with a few friends. Greetings from Mysuru
Hang in there, Brooklyn. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Love from Bogotá.
