Help Zahra keep her home - 3 months behind on rent
The loss of a second income left Zahra short on rent for 3 months; help us stay in our home.

Following a long illness in the family, Zahra fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Wednesday a final eviction notice was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $2,550.
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 a toddler and a baby at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Zahra 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 $2,550 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $1,650
• First month of rent as a buffer: $710
• Utilities in arrears: $190
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
