Help Pablo keep his home - 4 months behind on rent

A sudden layoff left Pablo short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.

When my hours were cut in half in July, Pablo fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a final eviction notice 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 October, 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. Pablo has started working night deliveries, 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 $600 goes: • Rent arrears (4 months): $380 • Late fees and court costs: $60 • Utilities in arrears: $25 • First month of rent as a buffer: $135 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
