Hazel received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent
A divorce left Hazel short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.
🇺🇸 Tennessee, United States735 views
Following a long illness in the family, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,850.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by July, 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 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 $2,850 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $1,800
• First month of rent as a buffer: $690
• Late fees and court costs: $360
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Is there anything that isn't money that would help Hazel?
Thank you. If you're in Memphis I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
Good luck. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Love from București!
Hope it all works out. Looking forward to the next update. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Thinking of Memphis.
This could happen to any of us. Love from Nagpur.
Wishing you peace. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I'm in logistics myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Best of luck, Hazel. Hope you get there. Take care
Thinking of you, Hazel. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Love from Fayetteville.
sending good thoughts, Hazel. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Take care.
Sending strength, Hazel. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. All the best.
Sending good thoughts, Hazel. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. God bless.

thinking of you and your family. I hope things turn around soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Thinking of Memphis
