Keep a roof over Anaïs's head in Mississauga
A termination letter arrived last week. Anaïs needs $3,400 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Mississauga.

After a sudden layoff at the hotel, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Saturday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $3,400.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by January, we must leave.
I have a teenager still in school 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 night deliveries, 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 $3,400 goes:
• Rent arrears (5 months): $2,200
• Late fees and court costs: $130
• Utilities in arrears: $140
• First month of rent as a buffer: $930
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

Thanks for sharing this, Anaïs. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. I have a 14 year old who wants to send good wishes too. Greetings from Makassar.
Shared this with my family. I hope January is when things finally get easier. All the best.
Take care. Looking forward to the next update. Don't be hard on yourself for asking. Love from Toronto.
Good luck, Anaïs. Shared it with a few friends. Blessings!
Hope it all works out, Anaïs. Gave what I could, wish it was more. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Thinking of Mississauga.
I hope your landlord gives you a bit more time while this comes together. My husband and I read this together. Love from Mumbai
