Keep a roof over Aarti's head in Liverpool
After the closure of the factory, Aarti is 3 months behind on rent and has a notice to vacate from the landlord.
🇬🇧 Liverpool, England, United Kingdom3,562 views
Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Thursday a notice to vacate was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,900.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by May, 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 extra hours at a market stall, 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 $3,900 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $2,750
• Late fees and court costs: $145
• Utilities in arrears: $250
• First month of rent as a buffer: $755
Every share and every dollar helps.

Good luck. Gave what I could, wish it was more. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best.
You're not alone, Aarti. This could happen to any of us. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. Love from Narayanganj
Wishing you peace. Hope this works out for you. Don't give up.
