When the hotel closed in July, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Monday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $750.
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 three school-aged 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 weekend shifts, 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 $750 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $75
• Late fees and court costs: $60
• Rent arrears (5 months): $615
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Sending love, Gamze. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 30 years in retail I know how hard it's to ask for anything
is there anything that isn't money that would help Gamze?
Your post was clear and honest. Love from Pune!
thinking of you, Gamze. Looking forward to the next update. I'm in retail myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Take care
Thinking of you and your family. Gave what I could, wish it was more. After 15 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. God bless.
