Kalyani received an eviction notice - help us catch up on rent

A sudden layoff left Kalyani short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.

Following a long illness in the family, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $500. My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by August, we must leave. I have a toddler and a baby at home. Moving isn't just an expense - it would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else. I have started working evenings as a cleaner, and I'm 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 $500 goes: • First month of rent as a buffer: $115 • Rent arrears (4 months): $350 • Late fees and court costs: $35 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Updates from Kalyani

  1. Good news. Because of your gifts ($366 in total) the first invoice got paid this week. Still a way to go but it feels less lonely.
