Gianna received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent

A 10-day notice to quit arrived last week. Gianna needs $500 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Taguig.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Friday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $500. 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 a teenager still in school 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 $500 goes: • Late fees and court costs: $40 • First month of rent as a buffer: $120 • Rent arrears (5 months): $340 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Gianna

Updates from Gianna

  1. Thank you all. We're at 85% now ($427). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward late fees and court costs.

  2. Update from Taguig: the first invoice got paid this week. We're at 34% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.

  3. Small update. $75 so far, I met with the landlord and confirmed the amounts.

        Take care, Gianna. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Pasig.

        • Prince Osei

          best of luck, Gianna. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day.
