Help Talha keep his home - 4 months behind on rent

After a sudden layoff at the restaurant, Talha fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a notice to vacate was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $300. The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, 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. Talha has started working evenings as a cleaner, 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 $300 goes: • Late fees and court costs: $15 • Utilities in arrears: $35 • Rent arrears (4 months): $250 Glad we found this place.
