Help Allison keep her home - 4 months behind on rent

Following a long illness in the family, Allison fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Friday a final eviction notice was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $850.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by June, the family must leave.
There are a teenager still in school at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Allison 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.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $850 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $165
• Late fees and court costs: $145
• First month of rent as a buffer: $540
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.
