Keep a roof over Arun's head in Pune
A sudden layoff left Arun short on rent for 4 months; help us stay in our home.
🇮🇳 Pune, Maharashtra, India821 views
After a car accident that kept me from work for 7 weeks, Arun fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Tuesday a 10-day notice to quit was taped to the door, and the amount owed is $550.
The landlord was understanding for a while, but has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by October, the family must leave.
There are three school-aged children at home. Moving would mean new schools, a new commute and no deposit to put down anywhere else.
Arun has started working evenings as a cleaner, and is 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 $550 goes:
• Rent arrears (4 months): $370
• Late fees and court costs: $50
• Utilities in arrears: $25
• First month of rent as a buffer: $105

Best of luck, Ganesh. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
hope it all works out, Ganesh. Hope this works out for you. It's not much but it's yours. Love from Ekurhuleni.
everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. I have a 5 year old who wants to send good wishes too. All the best!
Best of luck. A secure home matters so much. Hope you're settled soon. My neighbor in Fresno donated after I showed her your page. Thinking of Pune
Stay strong. Gave what I could, wish it was more. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Blessings
