When my hours were cut in half in October, Ángel fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Friday a notice to vacate was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $1,100. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by January, 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. Ángel has started working evenings as a cleaner, and is 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 $1,100 goes: • Rent arrears (4 months): $850 • Late fees and court costs: $40 • Utilities in arrears: $55 • First month of rent as a buffer: $155 Every share and every dollar helps.

  • Thinking of you and your family. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I went through something like this 8 years ago and strangers helped me out. All the best

    • Sending good thoughts. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My father had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. God bless
