Help Alexandra keep her home - 3 months behind on rent
A termination letter arrived last week. Alexandra needs $5,000 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Sacramento.

When the packaging plant closed in May, Alexandra fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $5,000.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by September, the family must leave.
There are a toddler and a baby at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Alexandra has started working extra hours at a market stall, and is applying for help from local services, but nothing will arrive in time without the rest of the gap covered here.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $5,000 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $3,550
• Late fees and court costs: $185
• Utilities in arrears: $350
• First month of rent as a buffer: $915
Thanks for reading all this.
