Help Satoshi keep his home - 4 months behind on rent

After a car accident, Satoshi is 4 months behind on rent and has a 10-day notice to quit from the landlord.

When my hours were cut in half in August, Satoshi fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $3,850. 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 two young children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Satoshi has started working extra hours at a market stall, 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 $3,850 goes: • Rent arrears (4 months): $2,600 • Late fees and court costs: $330 • Utilities in arrears: $250 • First month of rent as a buffer: $670 With deep gratitude, Asuka

    Hang in there, Asuka. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. Wish I lived closer to Moscow so I could bring a meal.

                        So sorry you're going through this, Asuka. I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Love from Strasbourg
