Following a long illness in the family, I fell 3 months behind on rent. Last Friday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $400.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by November, 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 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 $400 goes:
• Rent arrears (3 months): $220
• Late fees and court costs: $35
• Utilities in arrears: $30
• First month of rent as a buffer: $115
I hope life is good to you.

Updates from Anita
Thank you all. We're at 13% now ($50). I'm honestly stunned. I made the first payment toward rent arrears.
Quick update: $70 raised so far (18%). we've booked the dates and paid the deposit. Receipts coming as soon as I have them. - Anita

Hope this works out for you. Don't give up. Greetings from Riyadh
Stay strong, Anita. Rent stress is the worst. Hope this helps. The breakdown of costs made it easy to trust. Take care.
Hope things get better soon, Anita. This could happen to any of us. Put this on a community board in Nijmegen this morning. All the best.
Hope things get better soon, Anita. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. All the best.
