Help Daniel keep his home - 2 months behind on rent
A sudden layoff left Daniel short on rent for 2 months; help us stay in our home.

When my hours were cut in half in April, Daniel fell 2 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $2,850.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by July, the family must leave.
There are two young children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Daniel has started working weekend shifts, 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 $2,850 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $135
• First month of rent as a buffer: $790
• Rent arrears (2 months): $1,925
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.

sending love. Shared it with a few friends. I hope July is when things finally get easier. Take care
rooting for you, Laura. Hope you get there.
Thanks for sharing this, Laura. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Houston.
Thinking of you, Laura. Gave what I could, wish it was more
thanks for sharing this, Laura. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. God bless.
