Help Nisha keep her home - 3 months behind on rent
A termination letter arrived last week. Nisha needs $600 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Tiruchirappalli.

After a car accident that kept me from work for 4 weeks, Nisha fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $600.
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 two young children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Nisha 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 $600 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $390
• Late fees and court costs: $30
• Utilities in arrears: $50
• First month of rent as a buffer: $130
Thanks for reading all this.

Praying for you. I hope things turn around soon. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Thinking of Tiruchirappalli.
How is Nisha doing now?
gave what I could, wish it was more. Sent it to 22 people at work. All the best.
Rooting for you. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. I'll check back for the next update. Thinking of Tiruchirappalli.
Wishing you peace. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it
I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I have a 9 year old who wants to send good wishes too
