Keep a roof over Anil's head in Nagpur
A termination letter arrived last week. Anil needs $200 to clear the arrears and stay housed in Nagpur.
🇮🇳 Nagpur, Maharashtra, India970 views
After a sudden layoff at the construction firm, I fell 5 months behind on rent. Last Monday a termination letter was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $200.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by July, 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 two part-time jobs, and I'm 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 $200 goes:
• First month of rent as a buffer: $135
• Utilities in arrears: $35
• Late fees and court costs: $30
I never thought I'd be the one asking, and I'm grateful for every bit of support.

Small update. $111 so far, the first invoice got paid this week.
Update from Nagpur: I made the first payment toward late fees and court costs. We're at 43% of the goal. Thank you for believing in us.
Wanted to say thank you properly. 31% funded and the plan for utilities in arrears is now scheduled.

Wishing you the best, Anil. I hope things turn around soon.
So sorry you're going through this, Anil. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon.
hang in there, Anil. Looking forward to the next update. I'm in nursing myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
Good luck. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. Thinking of Nagpur.
Hope it all works out. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Beersheba
