Help Rasha keep her home - 4 months behind on rent

When my hours were cut in half in August, Rasha fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Sunday a final eviction notice was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $1,750. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, 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. Rasha 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. 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 $1,750 goes: • Rent arrears (4 months): $1,400 • Utilities in arrears: $95 • Late fees and court costs: $255 Thank you for reading my story. - Hala
