Help Natália keep her home - 4 months behind on rent
After a divorce, Natália is 4 months behind on rent and has a notice to vacate from the landlord.
🇧🇷 Ceará, Brazil2,179 views
When my hours were cut in half in April, Natália fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Monday a notice to vacate was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $1,350.
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 a teenager still in school at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Natália 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.
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 $1,350 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $910
• Late fees and court costs: $115
• Utilities in arrears: $105
• First month of rent as a buffer: $220
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Thinking of you, Eduardo. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I have a 17 year old who wants to send good wishes too.
best of luck, Eduardo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We're a small family in Södertälje but we're thinking of you
Hang in there. Looking forward to the next update. Blessings

Can I help in a way that isn't money? I'm near Juazeiro do Norte
Thank you. If you're in Juazeiro do Norte I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Let me know if you want more detail.
Sending strength, Eduardo. Your post was clear and honest. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Thinking of Juazeiro do Norte!
Thinking of you, Eduardo. Your post was clear and honest. All the best.
hope it all works out. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double
You're not alone, Eduardo. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Thinking of Juazeiro do Norte.
So sorry you're going through this, Eduardo. It takes guts to ask. Well done. Love from Bandung.
Wishing you the best. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. Greetings from Osaka.
keep going. Your post was clear and honest. Put this on a community board in Milan this morning. Blessings!
Take care, Eduardo. Your post was clear and honest. All the best.
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor had a similar thing happen so this one hit home. Greetings from Bursa
