After a sudden layoff at the textile factory, I fell 4 months behind on rent. Last Monday a court summons for non-payment was taped to my door, and the amount I owe is $2,000.
My landlord has been understanding for a while, but he has now been clear: if the arrears aren't cleared by February, we must leave.
I have three school-aged children 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 weekend shifts, 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 $2,000 goes:
• Utilities in arrears: $290
• Rent arrears (4 months): $1,450
• Late fees and court costs: $260
Thanks for being kind about this.

Shared this with my family. Wish I lived closer to Gondar so I could bring a meal
Sending good thoughts, Autumn. Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. God bless.
you're not alone, Autumn. I was in a similar spot a few years ago and it did get better.
