Help Trupti keep her home - 3 months behind on rent
A court summons for non-payment arrived last week. Trupti needs $550 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Thane.

After a car accident that kept me from work for 6 weeks, Trupti fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Monday a court summons for non-payment was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $550.
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 2 children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Trupti 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 $550 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $500
• Late fees and court costs: $20
• Utilities in arrears: $30
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

wishing you the best, Rajan. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. Blessings
is there anything that isn't money that would help Trupti?
Thank you. If you're in Thane I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great.
you're not alone, Rajan. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. We lost years of savings to something like this so I get it. God bless
A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. Wish I lived closer to Newcastle upon Tyne so I could bring a meal.
Thinking of you and your family, Rajan. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Greetings from Dar es Salaam.
Sending love. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless.
