Help Theodora keep her home - 5 months behind on rent
A car accident left Theodora short on rent for 5 months; help us stay in our home.

Following a long illness in the family, Theodora fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Monday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $1,500.
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 3 children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Theodora has started working two part-time jobs, 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 $1,500 goes:
• Rent arrears (5 months): $1,000
• Late fees and court costs: $70
• Utilities in arrears: $125
• First month of rent as a buffer: $305
I hope life is good to you.

I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Please keep us posted. Thinking of Athens.
Praying for you. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 14 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless.
How is Theodora doing now?
Best of luck, Paraskevi. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Catania donated after I showed her your page. All the best.
Rooting for you, Paraskevi. Shared it with a few friends. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Blessings
Keep going, Paraskevi. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. It's not much but it's yours
Sending good thoughts, Paraskevi. Your post was clear and honest. I'll check back for the next update.
Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. After 20 years in accounting I know how hard it's to ask for anything.
sending good thoughts, Paraskevi. Your post was clear and honest.
Sending good thoughts, Paraskevi. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. My husband and I read this together. God bless
Sending strength. Shared this with my family. We're a small family in Pretoria but we're thinking of you. Greetings from Pretoria
