After a car accident that kept me from work for 8 weeks, Roberto fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a final eviction notice was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $1,400.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by June, 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.
Roberto 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 $1,400 goes:
• Late fees and court costs: $40
• First month of rent as a buffer: $300
• Rent arrears (5 months): $1,060
Every share and every dollar helps.

is there anything that isn't money that would help Roberto?
Thank you. If you're in Ciudad de México I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Thanks, that means a lot.
Rooting for you, Héctor. This could happen to any of us. Please keep us posted. Blessings

Looking forward to the next update. My neighbor in Toronto donated after I showed her your page. Blessings.
