Spanish Town

Following a long illness in the family, Shanice fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $1,150. 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 three school-aged children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. Shanice 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. The money will be paid directly to the landlord and I'll upload the receipt once it's done. Where the $1,150 goes: • Rent arrears (4 months): $950 • Late fees and court costs: $105 • Utilities in arrears: $95 Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot. - Venesha
