Help Prakash keep his home - 5 months behind on rent
After the loss of a second income, Prakash is 5 months behind on rent and has a 10-day notice to quit from the landlord.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India1,648 views
Following a long illness in the family, Prakash fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $750.
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.
Prakash 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.
The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done.
Where the $750 goes:
• Rent arrears (5 months): $540
• Late fees and court costs: $40
• Utilities in arrears: $40
• First month of rent as a buffer: $130
Glad we found this place.

hope things get better soon, Vijay. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Love from Guadalupe
Sending good thoughts, Vijay. Hope this works out for you. I'm in hospitality myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Sending strength, Vijay. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
Keep going. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. Thinking of Mumbai.
sending good thoughts. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I hope September is when things finally get easier. God bless
